Which mechanism in a Venturi flume causes differential pressure readings?

💡 Explanation

Bernoulli's principle causes the pressure drop; because the fluid velocities increases when flowing through the flume's narrow throat, total energy stays same, therefore decreases static pressure according to conservation of energy, rather than viscous forces or deceleration alone. The mechanism is kinetic energy increase.
