Spec Sheet Description
Multi Purpose Flow Channel
- Model: HB-20-2.5 (3.2m)
- Model: HB-20-5.0 (5.7m)
The equipment consists of an open flow channel, with rectangular section available in lengths of 2.5 m and 5 m and made of acrylic transparent material.
The channel is mounted on a rigid framework and it can be tilted. The inlet tank is designed to ensure a uniform flow. The level inside the working section of the channel is controlled by an overshot weir placed at the discharge end.
A lot of objects are supplied that can be fixed to the channel base, for a better studying of fluids mechanic. A longitudinal scale available at the top of the channel allows to position the depth gauges and Pitot-static tubes in different points along the channel, in order to perform the speed measurement.
The channel has been designed to be used with the hydraulics bench that provides the pumped water flow, the flow control valve and a volumetric tank for flow measurement.
Training Program:
- Studying the channel flow
- Studying the flow of a tilted channel
- Determining the height of a free surface in relation to the rate and inclination
- Studying the flow on the elements immersed in the channel
