Excerpt from The Venturi Meter The experiments about to be detailed were made with two sizes of Venturi Water Meters, of precisely similar interior geometric dimensions; one inserted into a tube of about nine feet, the other into a tube of about one foot in diameter. In each case the other intended dimensions may be found from an examination of the proportional dimensions given in Plate XXXIII.
