This apparatus is designed to introduce students to minor flow losses (Fittings) in Pipes. The following types of pipe fittings are generally provided with the apparatus
- Elbow
- Bend
- Sudden Expansion
- Sudden Contraction
- Valve
A flow control valve permits variation of flow rate through the circuit. Pressure tapings are incorporated so that the head loss characteristics of each fittings may be measured. These tapings are connected to a differential manometer . The circuit and manometer are attached to a support framework.
