Venturi Meter and Orifice Meter Apparatus Description and Specifications for Lab Tenders
Venturi Meter and Orifice Meter Apparatus.
Venturi Meter & Orifice Meter Apparatus
Recirculating design with supply tank & measuring tank.
• Non corrosive tanks & piping.
• Transparent Venturi meter & Orifice meter made in acrylic
DESCRIPRION:
The
Venturi meter & Orifice meter Apparatus is designed for calibration
of water flow meters. Set up consists of a venturi meter & orifice
meter clear acrylic fitted in pipe. Each flow meter has two pressure
ports which can be connected to a mercury manometer to measure pressure
difference at inlet & throat. This pressure difference is used to
calculate the water flow rate theoretically. Water is supplied from the
sump tank by centrifugal pump & measuring tank is provided to
measure the water flow rate. The entire setup is mounted on a strong
steel frame. By comparing the theoretical & measured flow rate, the
discharge coefficient for flowmeter can be determined.
EXPERIMENTAL CAPABILITIES:
•
To study water flow measurement using ventui meter & orifice
meter.• To determine discharge coefficient for flowmeter.• To compare
venture meter & orifice meter.
