Different Impellers of Pumps and Turbines

Description

For showing potential energy in a wound-up spring and its conversion to electrical energy by driving a dynamo and lighting a lamp. May also be used to wind up a weight on a cord showing the change from potential energy to kinetic and back to potential in the raised weight. The steel shaft carries a clock spring with a free wheel device and winding ratchet, also an aluminium 'V' pulley 56 mm. diameter. One end of the shaft overhangs the base for use as line shaft when winding up a weight. Dimensions 220 x 100 x 100 mm. high Supplied complete with driving belt.

Description

For use as a water turbine to drive a generator producing electricity or for use as a pump driven by a motor and raising a head of water to produce potential energy. The rotor has eight 'bucket' blades and is housed in a block turbine chamber with a clear Perspex front. Two inlet tubules (for turbine and pump operation respectively) and one outlet tubule are provided and the shaft carries a 15 mm. diameter pulley. With driving belt.

Description

Highly useful for demonstrating the most fundamental and frequently used mechanism. Very useful for engineering students. All the components are made of high degree of precision. These modules are assembled on transparent perspex sheets to facilitate teaching. Easy to assemble or disassemble.
