Visualisation of Seepage Flows Apparatus

Visualisation of two-dimensional seepage flows and investigation of water pressure at various models closed water circuit
Experimental section with tempered glass viewing window
Fine-mesh screen to separate the experimental section from the feed and discharge chamber
Height-adjustable overflows in the feed and discharge to adjust the water levels
Fluoresceine as a contrast medium
Retaining wall" and "foundation" models for demonstration of the water pressure
Instruments: tube manometers, tubes on the "foundation" and "retaining wall" models
14 measuring connections with filters to detect the groundwater levels in the experimental section
Sheet pile" model for visualisation of streamlines.
