  This is an annotated translation from Latin of "Experimenta coram societate
instituta in confirmationem theoriae pressionum quas latera canalis ab aqua
tranfluente sustinet" in which Daniel Bernoulli describes six experiments
conducted before the St. Petersburg Academy in 1729, in confirmation of his
theory dedicated to the motion of water through ducts, which contains the
developments that led to the relation between pressure and velocity in fluid
flows, known as Bernoulli's principle.
