Compact Kaplan Turbine Test Set
This is a self contained bench top set for studying the Kaplan turbine characteristics under various flow rates and heads.
The unit consists of a storage tank, a pump, a Kaplan turbine, a dynamometer, and measuring instruments. The adjustable guide vanes direct water helically to the runner.
Instruction manual is also included.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
- Torque vs speed at various heads and flow rates.
- Power output vs speed for various heads and flow rates.
- Efficiency vs speed for a given head and flow rate.
- Racing characteristics.

Hydraulic Studies and AccessoriesPitot Tube Apparatus
This apparatus is for a study of velocity distribution across pipe section for a water flow in pipe, and for measurement of flow velocity. It is to be used with Hydraulics Bench i.e. HB100 or HB100N (separately supplied).
The apparatus consists of a total head tube and a static head tube for the Pitot, clear acrylic pipe, inlet and outlet, and an inclined manometer. The total head tube can be moved up or down vertically with a scale for indication of the tube position. Differential pressure is measured by a multiple inclination manometer.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS- Accuracy of pitot tube meters
- Losses and k value
- Calculation of the coefficient of discharge
TECHNICAL DATAAcrylic tube 34 mm. diameter. Total head probe 1 ea. Inclined water manometer 0-450 x 1 mm graduation. Software for data display and analysis by computer (separately supplied). (0 reviews) -
Hydraulic Studies and AccessoriesDead Weight Pressure Tester
The tester is designed to calibrate pressure gauge.
It consists of a precision machined stainless steel piston and cylinder with calibrated weights. The weights are applied on the upper end of the piston rod to generate pressure. The assembly is mounted on adjusting screws with a bull’s eye level. The pressure gauge is connected to the cylinder, thus subject to known pressure and comparison with the gauge reading can be made. Leaking liquid from the cylinder is returned to a reservoir. The cylinder can be simply refilled with liquid from the reservoir without removing the piston.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS- Calibration of a pressure gauge
- Determination of gauge errors as a function of true pressure
TECHNICAL DATAPressure gauge 1 ea. Calibration weights 1 lot. Software for data display and analysis by computer (separately supplied). (0 reviews)
