Permeability Apparatus
The apparatus is a self-contained unit for a studying the water flow through a permeable media.
It consists of a rectangular open top tank mounted on a steel frame. The front panel is of clear tempered glass to allow observation of flow pattern through permeable media. Other walls and bottom are stainless steel. The rear panel has pressure tappings with filters. The tappings are connected to a manometer bank for measurement of head distribution.
Two adjustable overflows near each end of the tank are provided to maintain different constant water levels.
A storage tank and a pump provide a recirculatory water system.
The permeable media is contained in the tank by two removable stainless steel mesh baffles-one on each side. Plate with seals is provided to simulate sheet piling and dams. A dye injection system allows visualization of the flow line.
Instruction manual is also included.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
- Flow under a sheet pile
- Seepage through an earth embankment.
- Uplift pressure on structures.
- Determination of flow nets in permeable media.

Fundamental Hydraulic Studies and AccessoriesHydrostatics Pressure – Tilting Submerged Quadrant
This equipment allows the moment caused by a fluid thrust on a wholly or partially submerged plane surface to be measured directly. This surface can be tilted.
A PVC quadrant is hinged on a shaft pivoted on knife edges which coincide with the quadrant center. The quadrant position is adjustable relative to a balance arm such that the submerged plane surface can be tilted by changing the lock pin position. A depth scale is indicated on the quadrant. When the quadrant is immersed 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 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

Fundamental Hydraulic Studies and AccessoriesBernoulli’s Theorem Apparatus
Bernoulli’s theorem is applied on flow through a clear acrylic Venturi tube. The apparatus is to be used with Hydraulics Bench i.e. HB100 or HB100N (separately supplied).
Static pressures at various points along the wall of a transparent Venturi tub are directly measured on a manometer equipped with a vent valve and a hand air pump. A movable stainless steel total head probe is also provided. Flow through the Venturi tube is controlled by a valve at the outlet. As a primary flow measuring device, coefficient of discharge for the Venturi tube can also be determined.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS- Application of the Bernoulli equation
- Measurement of the meter coefficient of discharge at various flow rates
- Comparison of experimental results with theoretical predictions
TECHNICAL DATADiameters 28 mm inlet. Taper Upstream 21°, Downstream 10° Water manometer 8 tubes. Total head probe 1 ea. Software for data display and analysis by computer (separately supplied). (0 reviews)
