Sluice Gate with Tappings

Product Code : SLE/EFM/22
  • A sluice gate with ten tappings across its face.
  • For use with an Flume, not included. 
  • Also how the pressure varies with flow rate and depth. 
  • Enables students to investigate changes in pressure across the face of a sluice gate.

Meter Flume

Product Code : SLE/EFM/23
  • A 300 mm wide 5 to 15 m long flume for student study and advanced research into a wide range of fluid flow topics. 
  • A huge range of ancillaries is available to extend learning potential.
  • The flumes have pressure measurement tappings at 0.25 metre intervals along the working section. 
  • These tappings can connect either to a multi-tube manometer or to a 32-way pressure display.
  • The flumes have a built-in re-circulating water supply connected to a digital flow metre for accurate measurements during experimentation.

Hydraulic Ram Pump

Product Code : SLE/EFM/24
  • The ram pump is not a normal mechanically-operated pump.
  • This changes the pump’s cycle times.
  • A supply pipe fitted with an inner and outer valve.
  • An air vessel to reduce hydraulic shock. 
  • The outer valve has a weight platform, for loading with the weights provided. 
  • A column of water in the supply pipe from a header tank, moving at low velocity, is similar to a ‘plunger’.
  • The energy in the plunger forces water from the supply into a delivery pipe. 
  • This exchanges the momentum of a large amount of water into energy that pumps a smaller amount of water up a hill or gradient.

The apparatus has three main parts: 

  • Header tank 
  • Pump and the interconnecting pipe work. 
  • The header tank mounts to a suitable wall.

Calibration of a Pressure Gauge

Product Code : SLE/EFM/25
  • Pressure gauge with visible working mechanism to demonstrate how this type of pressure gauge works and how to calibrate it.
  • The apparatus is a gauge connected to a dead weight tester. 
  • Gauge has a transparent dial that allows students to see the working mechanism. 
  • The mechanism is a thin walled tube with an oval cross-section, bent into an arc. 
  • One end of the tube is held rigidly.This end admits pressure. 
  • To calibrate the gauge, students add weights to a platform on a dead weight tester. 
  • The weights put a known force on to a piston. 
  • They then remove the weights and record gauge readings. 
  • The piston has a known area, so students can calculate the pressure.
  • A flexible tube containing water transfers the pressure on the piston to the tube. 
  • Students add the weights in increments, recording pressure readings from the gauge at each increment. 
  • The other end of the tube, connected to a dial and pointer mechanism, is free to move. 
  • When the pressure in the tube increases, it tries to straighten and so moves the pointer by an amount proportional to the pressure increase.  

Pressure Measurement Bench

Product Code : SLE/EFM/26
  • Manometers and Bourdon gauges are fundamental pressure-measuring devices. 
  • They are intrinsic parts of more complex measuring instruments, such as pneumatic comparators and flow indicators. 
  • It is important therefore that students fully understand their operation, characteristics and principles of calibration.
  • It also includes a separate Bourdon gauge with dead-weight calibration apparatus, enabling clear observation of the Bourdon tube mechanism.
  • Pressure Measurement Bench enables students to fully investigate and compare the operation and characteristics of inclined and U-tube manometers, and Bourdon-type vacuum and pressure gauges. 

The apparatus consists of two units:

  • A manometers and gauges unit.
  • A Bourdon pressure gauge calibration unit.

The manometers and gauges unit is a framed structure with a backboard, holding a:

  • vertical U-tube manometer.
  • U-tube manometer with an inclined limb.
  • Bourdon gauge for measuring vacuums.
  • Bourdon gauge for measuring positive pressure.
  • syringe assembly for pressurising and reducing pressure.

Vortex Appartus

Product Code : SLE/EFM/27
  • A low-voltage, variable-speed motor rotates the vessel about its vertical axis. 
  • A speed-control unit, sited away from the main apparatus, controls the speed of rotation. 
  • To produce a forced vortex, students add water to the rotating vessel until it is about half full. 
  • A forced vortex forms.  
  • The surface falls rapidly towards the centre and produces an air core. 
  • Students measure the surface profile using the traverse probe.
  • The traverse probe can move both horizontally and vertically, and both axes have linear scales. 
  • Students can also measure distribution of total head by replacing the traverse probe with a Pitot tube. 
  • After a few minutes the vortex becomes constant, and students can measure the surface profile using the traverse probe.

Center of Pressure

Product Code : SLE/EFM/28
  • A pivoted clear plastic assembly which students use to find the centre of pressure of a totally or partially submerged plane surface. 
  • Compact, self-contained and excellent for classroom demonstrations.
  • A scale on the panel of the apparatus shows the head of water. 
  • Consists of a vertical panel that holds a clear plastic quadrant, to which students add water. 
  • The quadrant has engraved lines to help students keep the plane in a vertical or angled position. 
  • Cylindrical sides of the quadrant have their central axis coincidental with the moment measurement axis. 
  • The total fluid pressures on these curved surfaces therefore exert no moment about this pivot. 
  • Therefore, the moment is only due to the fluid pressure on the plane test surface. 
  • Students measure this moment using weights suspended from a level arm.

Variable Speed Series And Parallel Pumps

Product Code : SLE/EFM/29
  • Bench-top test set that allows students to investigate the operation and performance of a single centrifugal pump and two centrifugal pumps in both series and parallel.
  • The pumps draw water from the clear acrylic reservoir.
  • The apparatus comprises one variable speed centrifugal pump and one fixed speed centrifugal pump, together with two bearing-mounted motors driving each pump independently. 
  • The water travels through a series of valves to be delivered to a flow and temperature measurement device. 
  • Then returns to the reservoir for re-use, keeping water use to a minimum.
  • Adjustable inlet and delivery valves allow students to create different operating conditions.
