ZM8146 Impact of a jet Demonstration Apparatus teaching aid equipment Hydrodynamics Lab Equipment

Purpose - This equipment enables students to measure the force developed by a jet of water impinging upon a stationary object.
ORDERING SPECIFICATION
● Discharge nozzle inside clear acrylic cylinder
● Four different target plates which fit onto a balance mechanism
● Quick release fitting for easy connection to hydraulics bench
This equipment allows the force developed by a jet of water impinging upon a stationary object to be measured.
MEASUREMENT CAPABILITIES

• Nozzle diameter: 8mm
• Distance between nozzle & target plate: 20mm
• Diameter of target plate: 36mm
• Target plates:

 – 180⁰ hemispherical target
 – 120⁰ target (cone)
 – flat target
 – 30⁰ target
