About FLUID FRICTION APPARATUS.

Specification:

FLUIDFRICTION APPARATUS

Fluid Friction Apparatus Shows flowand losses in different pipes, fittings and valves.

Shows popular flow measurementinstruments.

A space-saving vertical panel thatworks with Gravimetric or Volumetric Hydraulic Benches for easy installation

Includes different valves, pipes andfittings to show losses

Includes experiments on roughenedpipes

Shows laminar and turbulent flow

Uses Bernoullis equation

Shows how to use Venturi and orificemeters to measure flow

Includes a traversing Pitot tube tomeasure velocity profile

Fluid Friction Apparatus allowsstudents to study flow, flow measurement techniques and losses in a widevariety of pipes and fittings. The equipment has three water circuits withinstruments, pipes and pipe system components.

These allow students to examine andcompare the different component characteristics.

A hydraulic bench (Gravimetric) orVolumetric, available separately) supplies the circuit with a controlled flowof water. A space-saving vertical panel holds all the parts for easy use.

To measure pressure loss acrosscomponents, students use a piezometer set and differential pressure gauge(included).

To perform experiments studentsrecord the temperature of water in the hydraulic bench and set the hydraulicbench to pump water through a circuit. They measure pressure losses acrossinstruments or components. The hydraulic bench gives an external flow rate forreference and comparison. The flow measurement instruments show students thecommon methods of measuring water flow. They also give applications of thesteady flow energy equation (Bernoullis equation). Students use a Venturimeter and an orifice plate meter and compare the losses of each. They also findthe losses in a rapid enlargement.

The equipment also includes aPitot-static tube. By traversing the Pitot across the pipe diameter, studentscan find the velocity profile and flow coefficients. They also find therelationship between the flow rate and pressure differential. An artificiallyroughened pipe allows students to study friction factor at different Reynoldsnumbers, covering the interesting transitional flow from laminar to turbulent.They can compare results to those predicted by Nickuradses results and a Moodychart.
