About This Product
The bench supplies and measures water for separate experimental set-ups placed on its tray, including hydrostatic pressure, flow over weirs, Bernoulli’s theorem, flow meter demonstration, impact of jet and orifice discharge. A centrifugal pump circulates water from the sump, and discharge is found by timing the level in the measuring tank before its drain valve empties it back into the sump. Placed in a HYDRAULIC MACHINE LAB, it needs a drain, a 220 V single phase supply and a floor area of 1.75 m x 1.50 m.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Which experiments work with the hydraulic bench? Accessory set-ups for hydrostatic pressure, flow over weirs, Bernoulli’s theorem, flow meter demonstration, impact of jet and orifice discharge.
Q2. How is discharge measured on the bench? With the measuring tank and a stop watch, reading the water level on its separate level indicator and scale. A drain valve then returns the water to the sump tank.
