Energy Losses in Bend and Fitting
- Circuit with four bends of different radii
- Enlargement, contraction and gate valve, plus control valve
- Manometer board with 12 tubes plus differential pressure gauge
- Hand pump for pressurization of manometers
- Quick release fitting for easy connection to hydraulics bench
- Educational Software available as an option
Description:
- The equipment is mounted on a free-standing framework which supports the test pipework and instrumentation.
- The following typical pipe fittings are
incorporated for study: mitre bend, 90° elbow, sweep bends (large and
small radius), sudden contraction and sudden enlargement.
- All are instrumented with upstream and downstream pressure tappings.
- These tappings are connected to a bank
of twelve water manometer tubes, mounted on the framework.
Pressurisation of the manometers is facilititated by a hand pump.
- A gate valve is used to control the
flow rate. A separate gate valve is instrumented with upstream and
downstream pressure tappings which are connected to a differential gauge
on the edge of the framework.
