Pilot Static Tube Set Up

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.

Hemispherical Cup Ø Nozzle : Material Brass Ø Stainless Steel Chamber : Having of opposite sides made of glass Ø Water Circulation : FHP Pump, Crompton / Sharp make Ø Flow Measurement : Using Measuring Tank with Piezometer,Capacity 40 Ltrs. Ø Sump Tank : Capacity 60 Ltrs. Ø Stop Watch : Electronic Ø Control Panel : On / Off Switch, Mains Indicator etc. Ø The whole Set-up is well designed and arranged in a good quality painted Structure

DESCRIPTION:-

The apparatus consists of two pipelines emerging out from a common manifold. One pipeline contain a Venturimeter, second contains an Orifice. The pressure tapings from the Venturimeter and Orificemeter are taken to differential manometer to measure pressure difference. The Venturimeter and Orificemeter are connected in parallel and anyone of them can be put in operation by operating valves provided at the downstream. These valves can also regulate the flow. Present Set-up is self contained water re-circulating unit, provided with a sump tank and a centrifugal pump. Flow control valve and by-pass valve are fitted in water line to conduct the experiment on different floe rate. Flow rate of water is measured with the help of measured with the help of measuring tank and stop watch.

EXPERIMENTS:-

Ø To determine the Co-efficient of discharged through Venturimeter and Orificemeter Ø To measure discharge through Venturimeter and Orificemeter as flow meters.

DESCRIPTION:-

The experimental set up consist of a circular transparent cylindrical tank in which four circumferential jets have been placed along the circumference of the cylinder near its bottom which helps in the formation of free vortex. It is assumed that the torque exerted by these jets is negligible. The Orifice is reducing bush so that a reduced diameter can be investigated. The plate can also be rotated with the help of a variable speed motor so that the cylinder rotates about its vertical Axis with the help of a V belt and forced vortex is formed. Conditions wear allowed to steady state and the depth of flow at any particular point was observed not to change over a period of time. The experimental procedure involves measurement of resulting free surface that represents the variation of the sum of the pressure and datum head.

SCOPE OF EXPERIMENTS:-

Ø To plot the surface profile of a free and forced vortex by measurement of the surface profile coordinates and to show that total energy is constant throughout vortex.

DESCRIPTION:-

The Set-up consists of 2 pipes of different diameters, which are connected in parallel. Pressure tapings are provided on each pipe to measure the pressure losses with the help of a Differential Manometer. Control valves are fitted on each pipe, which enables to use one pipe at a time for experiment. 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 determine the losses due to fiction in pipes Ø To determine the friction factor for Darcy Weis back equation
