FLUID FRICTION APPARATUS

MODAL NO: MTFM-150.11

QTY


FLUID FRICTION APPARATUS

The trainer comprises three straight pipe sections made of different materials and with different diameters. Also included are: a pipe section with pipe bends, a pipe section with contraction and enlargement , a pipe section with interchangeable valves and fittings ,transparent venturi, Pitot and orifice for comparison of different flow measuring methods.

The length of the pipe sections is 2 m and the each section is fitted with at least five pressure measuring points means it is possible to obtain very accurate measurements and demonstrate the linear reduction in pressure in a pipe.

A rotameter and a volumetric measuring tank (measuring tank of base module)  are included for comparison measurements and calibrations. The volumetric measurement using a stopwatch gives highly accurate results even at low flow rates. 8 Tube manometer, a differential pressure gauge are provided for pressure and differential pressure measurements.

The pressure measuring points are designed as annular chambers for accurate pressure measurement. A movable manometer panel saves space and allows for optimal accessibility. The trainer comes with wheels providing the easy mobility.
