Chapter 3 Pressure Measurement Examples Example 3.3 A special high pressure U tube manometer is constructed to measure pressure differential in air at 13.8 MPa and 20oC. When an oil having a specific gravity of 0.83 is used as the fluid‚ calculate the differential pressure in N/m2 that would be indicated by a 135 mm reading. p − pa = m g h( gc m − f ) = (0.83)(1000) = 830kg/m 3 = = p 13.8 × 10 6 = f a RT (287)(293) g h( m − f ) p − pa = gc = 9.81(0.135)(830 − 164.11) = 881.51N/m 2 Example
