Pipe Flow Experiment

This pipe flow experiment allows students to measure pressure drops through various types of piping systems and allows them to compare these results to the theoretical calculations.

This experiment is a network of various pipe flow systems which students/engineers will encounter in real life. Demonstrates pressure drops across:

  • Internally smooth pipe vs. roughened pipe
  • Flow through an orifice
  • Flow through a sudden expansion/sudden contraction
  • Laminar flow
  • Flow through a series of elbows

Features:

  • All wetted parts made from corrosive resistant materials for long lasting life. Pipes made from transparent PVC.
  • Can be mounted to a wall or self-standing.
  • Easy twist-on Luer lock pressure ports allow tool free connection of pressure transducers or pressure gauges.
  • Rotameter flow meter or optional electronic turbine flowmeter to measure water flow rate.
  • Laboratory instructions/notes included.
