This equipment is designed to study the behavior of fluids in open channels through a variety of experiments. It allows for a comprehensive exploration of fluid dynamics in open channels, providing a practical approach to understanding fluid flow. The system operates independently, requiring only a connection to the power supply for use. Additionally, users have the flexibility to choose between a negative or positive channel slope, enabling the simulation of different flow conditions for a diverse set of experiments.

Experimental Objective

find the value of co-efficient of discharge of broad crested weir, sharp crested weir

AIM 

Visualization of streamlines when flowing around through various drag bodies.

Theory

The movement of a fluid (like water) around an object can be visualized by making the streamlines visible. In steady (stationary) flow conditions, these streamlines align with the actual paths followed by fluid particles. The closer the streamlines are to one another, the higher the flow velocity in that region.
