Flow through a venturimeter is given by
where
Q= flow rate, ft3/s (m3/s)
c =empirical discharge coefficient dependent on throat velocity and diameter
d1= diameter of main section, ft (m)
d2= diameter of throat, ft (m)
h1= pressure in main section, ft (m) of water
h2= pressure in throat section, ft (m) of water
