FM-HBA-02 FLOW METER DEMONSTRATION

DESCRIPTION

The equipment consists of a Venturi meter, variable area meter and orifice plate, installed in a series configuration to permit direct comparison. A flow control valve permits variation of the flow rate through the circuit. Pressure tapings are incorporated so that the head loss characteristics of each flow meter may be measured. These tapings are connected to an eight tube manometer bank

Incorporating a manifold with air bleed valve. Pressurization of the manometers is facilitated by a hand pump. The circuit and manometer are attached to a support framework which stands on the working top of the Hydraulics Bench. The bench is used as the source of water supply and for calibrating volumetrically each flow meter.


EXPERIMENTS

  • Directly comparing flow measurement using a Venturi meter, variable area meter and orifice plate
