FL 05.1 – Flow Channel 2,5m
This equipment is designed to study the behavior of fluids in open channels, and allows to perform a wide range of experiments and training.
Description
HIGHLIGHTS
- Standalone operation, as long as it is connected to the power supply.
- Choice between negative and positive channel slope.
- A range of devices for reading different parametres, manometric gauges, limnimeter, Pitot tube, etc.
- Wide range of accessories to study multiple phenomena.
- It includes a valve to regulate the appropriate flow rate at any moment.
- The flowmeter provides readings of the workflow rate at any time.
IMPORTANT NOTE
- We can provide a range of flow channels in various sizes. Consult without compromise.
Learning Objectives
- Study of flow through open channels , measuring variables such as:
- Height of water.
- Speed at different points of a cross section.
- Study of uniform flow , gradually varied flow and behavior of surface profiles.
- Study and use of landfill sites for the thin-walled flow measurement.
- Rectangular weir without lateral contraction.
- Using dumps and study of thick wall for flow measurement.
- Rectangular weir.
- Triangular weir.
- Study and use of Venturi channel.
- Analysis and study of flow under doors.
- Vertical gate.
- Radial gate.
- Study of the hydraulic jump.
- Analysis of flow over spillways of dams.
* Some of the practices require optional accessories.
