The apparatus consists of two pipelines emerging out from a common manifold. One pipeline contain a Venturimeter and other contain an Orifice. The pressure tapings from the Venturimeter and Orificemeter are taken to differential manometer to measure pressure difference. The Venturimeter & Orificemeter are connected in parallel and anyone of them can be put in operation by operating valves provided at the downstream. These valves can also regulate the flow.

Present set-up is self-contained water re-circulating unit, provided with a sump tank and a centrifugal pump. Flow control valve and by-pass valve are fitted in water line to conduct the experiment on different flow rates. Flow rate of water is measured with the help of measuring tank and stopwatch

Experiments

• To determine the co-efficient of discharged through Venturimeter and orifice meter.
• To measure discharge through Venturimeter and Orificemeter as flow meters.

Utilities Required>

• Electric supply 0.5 kW, 220V AC, Single Phase
• Water supply Tap water connection ” BSP Distilled water @ 60 liters (optional)
• Floor Area with Drain facility
