Friction In Pile Lines Apparatus

DESCRIPTION:

An orifice is an opening made in the side or bottom of tank, having a closed perimeter, through which the fluid may be discharged. A mouthpiece is short tube fitted to a same size circular opening provided in a tank so that fluid may be discharged through it. Orifice and mouthpiece are used to measure the rate of flow of liquid. The apparatus is designed to measure the co-efficient of discharge of orifice & mouthpiece. The apparatus consists of a supply tank, at the side of which a universal fixture for mounting orifice or mouthpiece is attached. A centrifugal pump supplied the water to supply tank. Head over the orifice/mouthpiece is controlled by a by pass valve provided at pump discharge. A measuring tank is provided to measure the discharge. A gauge for measuring X and Y co-ordinates of jet from the orifice is provided, which is used to calculate Cv of orifice.

SPECIFICATIONS:

[4] X-Y gauge for orifice jet co-ordinates. [5] Measuring tank of suitable capacity OR a calibrated water flow meter. [6] Sump tank of suitable capacity. [7] 0.5 HP pump with valve. A technical manual accompanies the unit.

SERVICES REQUIRED:

[1] Flow surface 2 mtrs. X 1 mtr. X 1.5 mtrs. height. [2] 230 Volts, 5 Amp. Stabilized AC. Power Supply.

DESCRIPTION:-

The Set-up consists of two sided clear fabrication. Water is fed through a nozzle and discharged vertically to strike a target carried on a stem, which extends through the cover. A weight carrier is mounted on the upper end of the stem. The dead weight of the moving parts is counter balanced by a compression spring. The vertical force exerted on the target plate is measured by adding the weights supplied to the weight pan until the mark on the weight pan corresponds with the level gauge. A total of two targets are provided a flat plat and a hemispherical cup.

EXPERIMENTS:-

Ø To measure the force developed by a jet of water impinging upon a different targets (Hemispherical & Flat Plate) and comparison with the forces predicted by the momentum theory.

DESCRIPTION:-

A Pitot tube is used to measure the local velocity at a given point in the flow stress. A Pitot tube of standard design made of copper / SS is supplied and is fixed below Vernier scale. The Vernier scale is capable to measure the position of Pitot tube in transparent pipe section. The pipe has a flow control valve to regulate the flow. A U-tube manometer is provided to determine the velocity head. Present Set-up is self-contained water re-circulating unit, provided with a sump tank and a centrifugal pump etc. Flow control valve and by-pass valve are fitted in water line to conduct the experiment on different flow rates. Flow rate of water is measured with the help of measuring tank and stop watch.

EXPERIMENTS:-

Ø To find the point velocity at the center of a tube for different flow rates of water and calibrate the Pitot tube Ø To plot velocity profile across the cross section of pipe
