With h being constant, we have A as a direct function of flow rate Q, thus; the Rotameter designer can
determine the tube taper so that the height of the float in the tube is a measure of flow rate.
Working Procedure :
Make sure that, the Rotameter is in the vertical position.
Now start the flow of water, which is the experimental fluid, by opening the valve slowly.
As the float moves upwards, an annular passage is opened between the wall of the tapered
glass tube and float periphery.
Stop the valve adjustment and observe that, float comes to a dynamic equilibrium position.
Take the reading of the float which is the rotameter reading.
On the same time collect the liquid within a time interval which is determined with the help of a
stop watch.
Determine the mass of the fluid by weight machine and convert it to volume.
With the reading of the volume and time calculated the volumetric flow rate of the liquid.
Repeat the above mentioned procedures for different observations for the different places of
float in the rotameter.
Observation :

Density of the fluid (water) is 1000kg/m3.

Rotameter Reading
Result: The obtain collected data from the graph the straight line which is passing through the center
point.
Precaution:
Stopwatch operated carefully.
The reading of the liquid level in the measuring flask taken carefully.
The values of the rotameter operated gradually increasingly.
The float remained fully stationary.
Discussion: Rotameter have proved satisfactory for liquids at high and low pressures.
