Energy Losses in Pipes.
Energy Losses in Pipes
The Energy Losses in Pipes accessory consists of a test pipe,
orientated horizontally, which may be fed directly from the Hydraulics
Bench supply or, alternatively, from the integral constant head tank.
This equipment allows the pressure drop of water passing through a
hydraulically smooth circular pipe to be measured in detail and the pipe
friction equation to be verified.
These sources provide high or low
flow rates which may be controlled by a valve at the discharge end of
the test pipe. Head loss between two tapping points in the test pipe is
measured using two manometers, a water over mercury manometer for large
pressure differentials and a pressurized water manometer for small
pressure differentials.
Excess water discharging from the constant
head tank is returned to the sump tank of the Hydraulics Bench.
Adjustable feet permit levelling.
Experimental Capabilities:
Investigating the variation of friction head along a circular pipe with the mean flow velocity in the pipe.
Investigating the effects of laminar and turbulent flow regimes.

Diameter of test pipe: 3.0mm
Length of test pipe: 560mm
