DESCRIPTION:

The equipment is designed and fabricated to demonstrate the Bernoulli's theorem. It consists of a test section made of acrylic. It has convergent and divergent sections. Pressure tapings are provided at different locations in convergent and divergent section. Present set-up is self-contained water re-circulating unit, provided with a sump tank, centrifugal pump etc. An arrangement is done to  conduct the experiment on different flow rates. Instrumentation has been done to measure the flow of water and pressure head at different location of test section.

The present set-up has a facility to interface the system with computer which enables to log the experimental data using computer. The educational software and data-logging package has been developed for unit. The software environment base is of Labview of NATIONAL INSTRUMENTS, USA. This software is compatible to interfacing unit designed by “Lab Smith”. This software package provides a comprehensive educational software environment within which the investigations can be performed. This software is capable to tabulate the sample readings according to the requirement of experiment under study and results obtained can be compared. The real time data acquisition can be done by interfacing the set-up with computer using software. Software allows the user to have control on data logging, printing the stored data, preparing spread sheets in Excel etc.
