SS250603A-G-7 Open Channel Flume Demonstration School Educational Equipment Vocational Trainer Workbench Lab Fluid Mechanics Equipment

There are numerous design features associated with flumes * Not all features are appropriate for every channel. Accurate for education and research Extremely stable design, no user adjustments required to the flume bed Floor space requirements reduced to a minimum Fabricated high precision stainless steel channel bed Quick conversion to closed-loop recirculation for sediment transport studies Precision screw jacks provide accurate slope adjustment with minimum effort (powered jacks available as an option) Adjustable instrument rails with positioning scales fitted over the whole working length Fully profiled inlet tank fitted with stilling and smoothing devices Discharge tank with adjustable overshot weir and draft tube to avoid splashing and enhance noise reduction Modular construction supplied in pre-glazed sections for rapid and easy assembly on site Wave generation options, both regular and random Comprehensive range of optional accessories, instruments and models available Non-corroding durable GRP tanks throughout Transparent sides are of toughened glass, which is extremely strong, abrasion resistant, dimensionally stable, does not discolor or scratch and is inherently safe Working section allows adjust-ability, enabling extremely accurate setting Under frame designed to reduce load deflections to a minimum Close tolerances specified and achieved The flumes are available in different lengths to suit the application, short versions for basic investigations and longer versions for investigations of gradually varied flow profiles with non-uniform channel flow.
