    Methods of Flow Measurement for Engineering Lab Equipment

    The Flow Meter Demonstration Apparatus contains different flow rate measurement devices that are clearly laid out with the associated pipework on a metal sheet. So that the function can be observed, the measuring devices are made of transparent plastic. The flow rate is measured using a nozzle, orifice, venturi flow meter and variable-area flow meter. To determine the flow rate using a nozzle/orifice and with the venturi flow meter, a differential pressure measuring device is required. This is included in the form of a multiple tube manometer so that the pressure curve along the venturi flow meter can also be displayed. The apparatus is placed on the Basic Hydraulics Bench, this provides the water supply to the unit.

    Orifice Discharge Apparatus

    The water drains vertically from a transparent supply tank through a nozzle due to the hydrostatic pressure. The velocity of the jet can be measured with a Pitot tube and a U-tube manometer. The jet diameter is measured with a micrometer. 5 easy to interchange nozzles are included. The water level can be set precisely using an overflow.The water supply is provided either from the laboratory (closed water circuit).

    Pipe Friction Apparatus

    The experimental set-up can be used on its own or with the Basic Hydraulics Bench. A supply of water is all that is required for operation. The unit is suitable for measuring pipe friction losses for laminar and turbulent flows. The experimental set-up is clearly laid out on a training panel. For investigations on laminar flow, a head tank is used for the water supply, whilst for turbulent flow, the supply is provided via the Basic Hydraulics Bench directly (or the water mains). The water flows through a pipe section, the flow is adjusted using reducing valves. The connection to the required measuring device is made via pressure tappings.

    Pipe Network Bench

    A common problem in the installation of pipe-work is the determination of pressure and flow rate in complex pipe systems. The Pipe Network Bench facilitates the setting up and investigation of different types of pipe system, for instance series and parallel configurations of pipes, their branches and joints. Analogous to Kirchoff’s laws in electrical engineering, the pressure in the pipes corresponds to the electrical voltage, the pressure losses to the electrical resistances. Node analyses can be performed. The pipe systems can be assembled on the top of the experimental module using the pipes and connecting fittings supplied. The experimental module includes a closed water circuit with supply tank and pump, and a tank for volumetric flow rate measurement. Two-tube manometers with different measuring ranges are included for pressure measurements.

    Pitot-Static Tube Apparatus

    It is possible to move the Pitot-static tube across the entire cross-section of the pipe and thus measure the pressure profile. The position of the measuring tip relative to the bottom of the pipe can be read on a scale. The Pitot-static tube can be connected to any differential pressure manometer using hose connections. Differential pressures up to approx. 50mbar are possible when using the pump .The water supply is provided either from the laboratory mains or using the (closed water circuit).

    Principles of Hydraulics

    The is part of a series of units that enable experiments to be performed on flow processes with the aid of a computer. Here several areas of incompressible flows can be investigated. After the recording of a pump characteristic curve, experiments on the topics of pipe flow and flow in open flumes can be performed. Water flows through a Venturi tube, an orifice, a bend, or a kink. During this process the pressure loss is measured and compared with the flow through a straight pipe. On flumes experiments can be performed on the open channel and on a channel with weir structures. Two different weir structures are supplied . The Data Logging Unit is necessary for the operation of the Computer Linked Hydraulics Bench. If power data is to be displayed, the Digital Power Meter is required.
