U-tube
Horseshoe-shaped tube
A U-tube is a tube bent into a U shape, used in scientific and industrial applications.
In chemistry, U-tubes hold drying agents or connect apparatus.
A U-tube manometer measures pressure differences by the height of liquid in each arm.
The shape appears in plumbing traps, where standing water blocks sewer gases. (Capitalized YouTube is the video platform.)
