b) An industrial process involves the measurement of the flow rate of water in a pipeline using an orifice plate of area Ao, which is related by the following equation. Ca Ao 2AP Q :X 2 - i) Sketch its construction ii) Calculate the pressure difference (AP) across the flow sensor, given the following parameters: - Volumetric flow rate, Q = 0.025 m³/s Discharge coefficient, C₁ = 0.6 Density of water, p = 1000 kg/m³ Internal diameter of pipe, D₂ = 100 mm Diameter of orifice, Do = 50 mm (2 marks) (6 marks)
