This experimental unit consists of a pipe section containing a venturi tube with transparent front panel, a
flow control valve downstream and measuring points for measuring the static pressures. Used to
study Bernoulli’s principle which describes the relationship between the flow velocity of a fluid and its
pressure. All pressure tapings connect to manometers held on a vertical panel behind the pipe work. The
manometers measure and show pressure distribution against a calibrated scale. Axially moveable
Pitot Tube for determining the total pressure at various points within the Venturi tube. 6 tube manometers
for displaying the static pressures and single tube manometer for displaying the total pressure. To perform
experiments, students connect the water supply and set a low, steady flow through the apparatus. Water supply
using the base module or via laboratory supply. Flow visualization using prepared CFD simulations. Digital
multimedia teaching material online in the Media Center: E Learning course, prepared CFD simulations;
This unit can be used with EDC-FM-100HB or can also be used with laboratory water supply. The on-board
flow control valve allows students to observe the pressure losses at different flow rates. Flow rate determined by
the base module.
To adjust the datum water level in the manometer tubes, students connect a hand-pump (included) to the valve
above the manometer tubes.
