RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT:
1. Study of open channel flow with slope
2. Study of specific energy curve
3. Study of hydraulic jump
4. Study of Nappe Profiles over a sharp crested weir.
5. Calibration of sharp crested, Broad crested and ogee weir.
6. Calibration of a Venturi flume.
7. Study of Flow under the sluice gate.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION :
The flume consists of a channel of size as in specifications. At the inlet a Flow steadying section is provided so that there will be fewer disturbances at the test section. The gates provided at the upstream and downstream of the Test section help to regulate the depth of flow. Depth measurements can be Achieved with the help of a hook or point gauge mounted on a trolley which Gives longitudinal and transverse movement. The slope of the bed can be Adjusted to give positive or negative slopes. A sump tank with monoblock pump of suitable capacity attatched for water circulation. Flow through the channel is measured by using measuring tank and orifice with differential manometer.The entire setup is powder coated with good color combination. The unit is closed circuit type.
