ZM8121 Reynolds Number Apparatus educational lab equipment Fluids Engineering Training Equipment
The unit must be realized for the visualization of laminar and turbulent flow. The visualizatioh must be obtained by injecting a dye inside a glass pipe flown by a variable water flw rate. The unit must include a bore glass pipe placed vertically in an open metal. A small tank must be located above the encasement/l the tank must be provided with a constant head smooth uniform flow, not to influence tests results. At the bottom of the test pipe a gate valve must control the flow rate.
Main guided experiment that can be performed:
1. Study of transition from laminar to turbulent flow
2. Calculation of Reynolds number and practcal verification
3. Examination of various viscosity values
4. Relationship between Reynolds number and viscosity
