Pitot Tube Apparatus

Pitot Tube 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).

Description

Pitot Tube 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 DATA
Acrylic 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).
