Construction Details :
Apparatus consists of a constant head tank and a small ‘dye’ tank. The constant head tank has a vertical transparent tube with a flow control valve at the discharge side. The velocity of water is varied by the flow control valve. When the dye is introduced then laminar or turbulent nature of the flow can be visualized.
Piping with necessary Valves and Fittings
Digital Stop Watch with 1/100 second Accuracy can be supplied at extra cost
Detailed Technical Manual supplied. However, On‑site Training available at extra cost
Range of experiments : To determine the Reynolds's number and hence the type of flow either Laminar or turbulent.
