Bernoulli's Equation and Real Fluids
In a horizontal pipe with a constriction, the measured pressure difference between the wide and narrow sections of a flowing fluid is less than predicted by Bernoulli’s equation. What is the most likely explanation?
A
The flow is not conserved through the pipe
B
The fluid has viscosity, unlike an ideal fluid
C
The fluid is compressible, unlike an ideal fluid
D
The fluid has lower density than expected
