5. The important conclusions drawn from equation are: It is easy to measure R value (meters),i.e. The differences in the levels of liquid A in the two limbs.

6. Application of simple manometer Simple manometer helps in measuring the consumption of gases in the chemical reactions Manometers are used in conjuction with flow meters for the measurement of flow of fluids. e.g. venture meter and orifice meter are used for the measurement of pressure head using a manometer.

10. Applications Micrometers based on the liquid column principle are available commercially. They measure the reading with extreme precision and sensitivity. These are free from errors due to capillarity and require no calibaration , apart from checking the micrometer scale.

13. Applications of Inclined Manometers The inclined manometer is essential for retaining the most accurate pressure levels for industrial gas applications. A low-pressure industrial gas system may be used to heat or cool manufacturing processes. A all blockage within the gas system can be detected with an inclined manometer and corrected.
