Horizontal Osborne Reynolds Demonstrator- Engineering Lab Training Systems Description and Specifications for Lab Tenders
Technical Description
The
experimental pipe section in this unit is horizontal, in contrast to the
vertical pipe.
.The horizontal arrangement enables the ink injection to
be controlled more easily. The flow rate in the experimental pipe
section can be adjusted with a manual valve. A raised tank with overflow
ensures a constant inlet pressure and flow rate. The clear formation of
the streamlines enables the transition from laminar to turbulent flow
to be observed. The critical Reynolds number is determined by measuring
the flow velocity when this transition occurs.
The water supply is provided either from the laboratory mains or using
the (closed water circuit). Fluid Mechanics Lab Equipments manufacturers
