Venturi Tube Simulation

Purpose:
To understand the application of Bernoulli equation

Assumptions:
Inviscid, incompressible flow; fluid: water (density=1000 Kg/m^3) Uniform velocity profile at stations 1 and 2 Hydrostatic pressures are ignored

Interaction:
Change the venturi tube radius by dragging the square yellow handle on the venturi up and down.
Enter a value for the venturi tube radius between 2.5 and 6 cm. Change the flow rate by dragging the square yellow handle on the flow vector horizontally.
Enter a value for the flow rate between 4000 and 7000 cm^3/s. Translate the entire venturi tube around the screen by dragging the circular yellow handle near the middle.

"There is an initial double buffering delay of about 4 seconds when the applet starts."
