Ground Water Flow Apparatus — MOE Lab Tender Details

Ground Water Flow Apparatus

Description: To demonstrate hydrological principles of ground water flow and application of the flow to certain engineering constructions. Square fiber glass sand tank on epoxy painted steel frame. Two horizontal water inlet pipe diffusers and wire mesh at both ends of the sand tank. Two vertical outlet wells interior to the inlet diffusers. Inlet and outlet are controlled by valves for various water flows tables and flow rates. Nineteen tapings with special plastic filter at the base of the tank arranged in orthogonal axes; connected to a manometer at the side of the tank.
Study of the regular pressure losses of:
Various diameters piping
Smooth and rough piping
Study of the singular pressure losses of:
Elbows of various angles
Various valves
Diverging and converging section
Measurement of the flows by pressure reducing
Venturi, diaphragm
