Which outcome occurs when water flows through a Venturi meter with insufficient downstream pressure?

A)Reduced flow rate measurement accuracy
B)Increased static pressure at the throat
C)Superheated liquid temperature
D)Unchanged fluid density

💡 Explanation

When downstream pressure is too low, cavitation occurs in Venturi meter because kinetic energy conversion to pressure results in vapor bubble formation, altering fluid properties and flow patterns. Therefore a reading inaccuracy results, rather than pressure increase, temperature changes or density being unaffected since bubbles distort true pressure reading.
