Sediment Transport Visualization Channel

This channel is mounted on to the manual jacking system, which provides positive step adjustment, via a hand wheel, withslope 0 to 10.The unit is supplied with manuals that describe each component of the system, installation and utilization procedures andgive many exercises. The channel sides are transparent in order that bed profile changes can be readily observed, and a section of one side is provided with graphical grid. The Sediment Transport Visualization Channel is designed to perform most of the experiments anddemonstrations usually undertaken in much larger laboratory flumes, but at much lower cost and without the need fortechnician back-up. The channel slope is adjusted by means of a screw jack to which isattached a slope indicator. Sand is placed along the channel bed, between the inlet tank and the over fall discharge weir. Water is circulated around the system at a selected flow rate.
