HM 122 FLUID FRICTION IN PIPES AND FITTINGS

• Flexible in use measuring system Technical description

• Closed water circuit with tank and pump
• Part of measured objects transparent
• Pressure measurement with annular chambers
The measuring system includes various measured sections that
are clearly laid out on a demonstration panel. There are straight
pipe sections made of different materials, and also measured
sections with different elbows and bends, pipe fittings, and a
range of measured objects. To make their function visible, the
measured objects are made of transparent plastic. The pipework
on the stand is made of corrosion resistant materials. The
closed water circuit and the installation of the measuring system
on a laboratory trolley make it flexible in use. A water meter and
2 flowmeters with different measuring ranges are included for
comparative measurements. A battery-operated differential
pressure gauge, a leaf spring manometer and a liquid-level ma-
nometer are provided for pressure measurements.

Experiments
• Laminar and turbulent pipe flow with friction
• Determination of the pipe friction coefficient
• Drag coefficients for bends and elbows
• Determination of pressure loss at pipe fittings
• Volumetric flow measurement with nozzle/orifice
• Volumetric flow measurements with Pitot tube
• Volumetric flow measurements with Venturi tube
• Comparison of different measuring techniques
