This Coriolis Component Of Acceleration Apparatus setup is intended to investigate the Coriolis  component of the slider crank mechanism's acceleration. The revolving slider is represented by the device using a hydraulic analogy. It is made out of a spinning block with two opposing arms. A swinging field motor can rotate these tubes at different speeds while also serving as a dynamometer to gauge the torque being delivered to the moving tubes. A Perspex window on the top cover aids with process visualization. Water flow through tubes is measured with a rotameter. A little single-bladed pump is used to move the water.

Experimental objectives

• to find out velocity and acceleration of a moving point If a point is moving along a line, with the line having rotational motion, the absolute acceleration of the point, is vector sum of –?
• To determine Coriolis Component of Acceleration at various speeds of rotation and water flow rates.
