Mini Pelton Turbine Test Set
This is a self contained bench top set for studying the Pelton turbine characteristics under various flow rates and heads.
The unit consists of a storage tank on a steel base, a pump, a mini Pelton turbine, a dynamometer, and measuring instruments. The adjustable nozzle directs the water jet to the runner buckets.
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 AccessoriesOrifice and Jet Flow
This equipment allows determination of coefficient of velocity and coefficient of discharge under various constant heads for two different orifice diameters. Comparison of jet trajectory with that by theory of mechanics can also be made. The equipment is to be used with Hydraulics Bench i.e. HB100 or HB100N (separately supplied).
The equipment consists of a removable clear acrylic cylinder with sharp edge orifice installed at and flush with the lower inside wall of the cylinder. An adjustable overflow allows various constant heads for the test and trajectory of the jet is indicated by probes on the jet path. Heights of the probes are indicated by scales. The apparatus rests on adjustable footings and a level gauge is provided.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS- Comparison of the actual and theoretical outlet velocity
- Calculation of discharge coefficient
- Determination of the contraction and velocity coefficients
- Determination of discharge characteristics (jet trajectory) for an orifice mounted in the side of a vertical tank and comparison with simple theory

Hydraulic Studies and AccessoriesHydrostatics Pressures
This equipment allows the moment caused by a fluid thrust on a wholly or partially submerged plane surface to be measured directly.
A PVC quadrant is mounted on a balance arm pivoted on knife edges which coincide with the quadrant center. When the quadrant immerses in water, there are hydrostatic forces. The balance arm has an adjustable counter balance and weights with a hanger. The quadrant is mounted on top of a clear acrylic tank which allows water to be admitted and drained to a required level by a valve. The tank rests on adjustable footings and a bull’s eye level is provided.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS- Visual demonstration of the Shear Force and Bending Moment at a cut section in a beam
- Determination of the Centre of Pressure
