DEMONSTRATION CAPABILITIES
The Armfield S16 Hydraulic Flow Demonstrator simply connects to a standard F1-10 Hydraulics Bench to permit the study of the following basic aspects of fluid flow:
Closed conduit flow
Application of the Bernoulli and Continuity equations to converging and diverging flow
Effect of gradual and sudden changes in cross section (energy losses)
Using a contraction as a flow measuring device
Using a Pitot tube to measure velocity / velocity profile
Flow through a Culvert
Open channel flow
Flow beneath an Undershot Weir (Sluice Gate)
Flow over Sharp Crested, Broad Crested and Ogee Weirs
Using hydraulic structures to measure flow in an open channel
Effect of changes in upstream and downstream water level
Characteristics of Clinging, Aerated, Depressed and Drowned Nappes
Sub-critical, Critical and Super-critical flow/ depth. Changes in Specific Energy and control imposed by the minimum energy condition
Characteristics of Hydraulic Jumps
Force and energy conditions in a Hydraulic Jump
Flow patterns associated with Hydraulic Jumps
Flow over Drop Structures / Energy Dissipation
Changes in flow profile in relation to the Froude Number (predicting flow conditions in an open channel)
Observation of flow patterns associated with flow around hydraulic structures
Velocity of gravity waves in shallow water / Formation of surface waves near critical depth
Project work Evaluation of user constructed hydraulic structures
