Physics Final Year Topic: Comparison of Measured Pressure Difference with an Ideal Venturi Flow Model

This Physics final year project tests a bounded pressure-flow relationship in an approved low-pressure teaching apparatus.

Why choose this project topic?

A focused study of venturi energy balance gives you a specific question in fluid dynamics. It tests a bounded pressure-flow relationship in an approved low-pressure teaching apparatus. The bounded comparison creates room to explain how your evidence supports an interpretation and where the method has limits.

How does measured pressure difference vary with flow rate compared with an ideal Venturi prediction?

Agree the apparatus or dataset, comparison range and feasible measurement schedule for venturi energy balance with your supervisor.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Define the materials, variables and comparison conditions for venturi energy balance.
  2. 02Use the laboratory's rated low-pressure flow rig and agreed measurement procedure.
  3. 03Evaluate the measurements or model outputs in relation to this question: How does measured pressure difference vary with flow rate compared with an ideal Venturi prediction?

A suggested research approach

Use the laboratory's rated low-pressure flow rig and agreed measurement procedure. Record flow and pressure repeatedly, account for geometry uncertainty and compare ideal predictions with a clearly defined loss or discharge parameter. Agree the available resources and record uncertainty, deviations from the protocol and any observations that challenge the initial interpretation.

What you will need

  • An approved low-pressure Venturi teaching rig
  • Calibrated pressure-difference and flow measurements
  • Geometry records and supervised operating limits

Keep your project scope clear

An ideal energy balance neglects losses and may fail outside the tested flow regime; the result is not a design rating for a pressure system.
