ManometryWe saw in previous sections that pressure is proportional to the height of a column of fluid. Manometry exploits this to measure fluid pressure. In other words we measure the height of a column of liquid supported by the pressure (actually the pressure difference). Barometer, piezometer and U-tube Manometer are some of the members of this class.
