DISCHARGE OVER NOTCHES
DESCRIPTION :
The setup consists of a channel having sufficient length and width in
which water is supplied from the bottom. Required Notch is fitted at
one end of this channel. A pointer gauge with Vernier scale is fitted to
measure the height of fluid in flow channel. Arrangement for fixing
interchangeable notches is made. Set of three notches, i.e. rectangular
notch, 60 V notch & 45 V notch is provided along with the set-up.
Present set-up is self-contained water re-circulating unit, provided
with a sump tank and a centrifugal pump etc. 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.
