Apparatus For The Determination Of Pressure Losses In Pipes

Hydraulic feed is obtained through an adjustable height reservoir at constant hydraulic head. Pressure losses are measured by means of two U manometers, one water type (800 mm) and the other mercury type (400mm). The Apparatus For The Determination Of Pressure Losses In Pipes has been designed to determine the pressure loss in a pipe in which water is made to flow.

Experiments:
Measurement of pressure loss in a pipe as a function of flow-rate.
Change from lamnar to turbulent flow.
Verification of Reynolds number.

Required services:
Hydraulic supply: 100 l/h from mains.
Weight and Dimensions:
Dimensions: 700 x 400 x 1700 h mm.
Weight: 15 kg.
