Chapter 16, Problem 16.11PP
Figure 16.17 O represents a type of flowmeter in which the flat vane is rotated on a pivot as it deflects the fluid stream. The fluid force is counterbalanced by a spring. Calculate the spring force required to hold the vane in a vertical position when water at 
gal/min flows from the 
in Schedule 
pipe to which the meter is attached.
