The rate of flow in a force main leaving a stormwater pump station can be measured by which of the following?

Venturi meter
Disk meter
Positive displacement factor
Calibration meter

Explanation

Answer: A - The rate of flow in a force main leaving a stormwater pump station can be measured by a Venturi meter. A Venturi meter are constructed with a converging section of pipe which increases the flow velocity and pressure loss. The rate of flow through the meter can then be calculated using the Bernoulli equation that is based on the conservation of energy fluid mechanics law.
