FM-433 | Energy Losses in Pipe Apparatus

The Energy Losses in Bends unit, allows to measure and compare the head losses produced by different singular elements: bends, section changes and valves, as well as to study the influence of the flow rate on the value of such losses. This unit can work with the Hydraulics Bench. This unit consists of a hydraulic circuit with a set of elements that disrupt the normal flow of the fluid that circulates by the pipe, due to sudden section and direction variations. The experimental unit is positioned easily and securely on the work surface of the base module. The water is supplied and the flow rate measured. Alternatively, the experimental unit can be operated by the laboratory supply.
