Mini Kaplan Turbine
This equipment demonstrates Kaplan turbine characteristics i.e. torque, power and efficiency at different speeds for various heads and flow rates of water. It is to be used with Hydraulics Bench i.e. HB100 or HB100N (separately supplied).
The turbine employs adjustable guide vanes and redirects water helically to the runner. Inlet pressure is indicated by a pressure gauge. Torque is measured by a Prony brake with two spring balances. Speed is indicated on a portable tachometer. Flow rate is measured by the Hydraulics Bench measuring tank.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
- Efficiency of Kaplan turbine
- Characteristic of Kaplan turbine
- Turbine torque and power output versus speed and flow rate at various heads.

Hydraulic Studies and AccessoriesFlow Over A Notch Channel
This is an open channel with flat top edge for Flow Over A Notch experiment on HB100G Hydraulics Bench gravimetric or HB 101 Basic Hydraulics Bench.
The unit is to be placed on top of HB 100G or HB 101. Water is admitted to the channel via a discharge diffuser and passes through a perforated sheet. Water is discharged over a detachable weir plate to the end section before draining to the storage tank. A hook and point gauge are placed on the channel top edge for water level measurement. The channel has adjustable footings.
Instruction manual is also included.
TECHNICAL DATAFlow section 25 cm wide x 17 cm deep Weir plates Rectangular notch, 60o and 90o V notches Software for data display and analysis by computer (separately supplied). Stainless steel vernier hook and point gauge: range 0-150 mm. (0 reviews) -
Hydraulic Studies and AccessoriesMetacentric Height
This equipment is designed to determine the metacentric height of a floating body and the height variation with the tilt angle. It is to be used with Hydraulics Bench i.e. HB100 or HB100N or a bowl (separately supplied).
The equipment consists of a rectangular pontoon. The center of gravity of the pontoon can be moved sideways by moving horizontal jockey weight.
The angle of tilt of the pontoon is indicated by a plumb-bob on a scale attached. The center of gravity of the pontoon can also be moved vertically by means of adjustable vertical weights on the mast.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS- Experiment to illustrate the floatation characteristics
- Determination of the Metacentric Height
TECHNICAL DATAPontoon 400 mm long x 200 mm wide x 100 mm high. Horizontal scale 1 mm graduation. Maximum angle of tilt ± 13ox 0.5º graduation Vertical sliding weight 1 ea. Jockey weight 1 ea. Software for data display and analysis by computer (separately supplied). (0 reviews)
