Which consequence results when a Venturi meter is misapplied with non-Newtonian fluids?

💡 Explanation

Spurious readings occur due to changing fluid properties. The assumed constant viscosity within Bernoulli’s equation no longer applies. Therefore, shear-thinning will introduce errors in the measurement, rather than an accurate measurement being obtained from the meter because viscosity affects pressure variations rather than flow alone.
