This equipment is designed to study of centrifugal pump characteristics at various speed. It is to be used with Hydraulics Bench i.e. HB100 or HB100N (separately supplied) for a water supply and flow measurement.

The pump with motor is mounted on the Hydraulics Bench. An advanced inverter controls speed as well as indicating speed and input power. Pump hoses with half unions are used to connect the pump with the Hydraulics Bench. Pressure gauges are installed at pump suction with half union and also at pump discharge (optional). The pump draws water from the Hydraulics Bench storage tank via a suction hose with a strainer and delivers flow to the Hydraulics Bench measuring tank (HB100) or flow digital display (HB100N).

This equipment is designed to study laminar flow in two dimensions. It is to be used with Hydraulics Bench i.e. HB100 or HB100N (separately supplied) for a water supply and flow measurement.

Two horizontal plates are placed closely together with seals on side edges.  The top plate is transparent and has a transparent grid to help observe stream line patterns.  This plate is removable to insert or remove models.  The bottom plate has small holes which are connected by valves to a water supply or source and a drain or sink.  Water is admitted through a diffuser at one end and drained at the other end. Stream lines are produced by regulating a flow of dye from a reservoir through a series of very small holes at the upstream end.  

The set rests on adjustable screw supports with bull’s eye level.

The apparatus demonstrates the principle of a ram pump. It is to be used with Hydraulics Bench i.e. HB100 or HB100N (separately supplied) for a water supply and flow measurement.

Water from a Hydraulics Bench is supplied to a reservoir with an overflow pipe. Height of the reservoir is adjustable. Water from the reservoir is supplied to the ram pump which has two valves. One valve allows the water to discharge in adjustable pulse controlled by a counter weight. When this valve shuts, the pressure wave will push the water in the pump via a check valve through a non-return valve to the delivery pipe. Water is delivered to a clear graduated cylinder with an adjustable height. A pulse chamber is provided to smoothen the ram delivery.

Instruction manual is also included.

This equipment provides laminar, transitional, and turbulent flow as predicted by Osborne Reynolds. It is to be used with Hydraulics Bench i.e. HB100 or HB100N (separately supplied) for a water supply and flow measurement.

It consists of a removable clear acrylic tank which is partitioned in half. Water is admitted at the bottom of one half through a diffuser and stilling material. The other half of the tank has an adjustable over flow pipe with a discharge at the bottom. Water from the tank is admitted into a clear horizontal shell inside which is a bell entry with a test pipe. Flow through the test pipe is controlled by a discharge valve. A dye injection system needle discharges the dye to the bell mouth and flow pattern in the test pipe can be observed.
