Bernoulli'S Theorem Demonstration: Experiment No. 04

This lab report describes an experiment investigating Bernoulli's theorem by measuring water flow through a tapered duct. The objective was to test the validity of the Bernoulli equation for steady fluid flow. The apparatus used included a hydraulic bench, stopwatch, and Bernoulli apparatus. The procedure involved leveling the apparatus, setting the water flow rates, measuring static head, timed volume collection, and measuring total pressure distribution with the test section reversed. The report is to include data, calculations, and answers analyzing the validity of the Bernoulli equation for convergent and divergent flow based on the experiment's results.
