Labtronic Energy Losses in Piping Elements is an advanced unit that has been specifically designed to investigate and analyze energy losses in bends and fittings. The unit is equipped with various accessories such as sudden enlargement, sudden contraction, long bend, short bend, elbow bend, and miter bend to facilitate comprehensive testing.
The apparatus can be easily positioned on the side channels of the hydraulic bench top channel, ensuring ease of use and convenience. A flow rate controllable valve helps regulate the flow rate through the circuit, enabling precise testing.
The pressure tapping in the circuit are connected to a twelve-manometer fixed on the apparatus panel, which incorporates air inlet and outlet valves in the top manifold. Additionally, an air bleed valve enables the levels in the manometer panel to be adjusted to a proper level to meet the system's static pressure.
Moreover, the unit is equipped with a differential pressure gauge that provides a direct reading of losses through the gate valve, ensuring accurate and reliable results. With Labtronic Energy Losses in Piping Elements, you can conduct in-depth investigations and analyses to improve your understanding of energy losses in bends and fittings.
Measuring head losses through bends, transitions, and fittings, and to use these measurements to estimate the loss coefficients for each transition fitting.
The energy balance between two points in a pipe can be described by the Bernoulli equation
