About This Product
A sump tank, 3 HP pump and supply tank with wave damping feed the channel, and a flow-steadying section at the inlet keeps disturbances at the test section low. Students set the bed slope with the screw jack, regulate depth with the upstream and downstream sliding gates, and read discharge from the orifice meter and manometer. Depths are taken with a hook or point gauge on a trolley that travels both along and across the channel. Colleges and TVET centres in Eritrea, Brazil, Serbia, Lebanon and Vietnam can source the Tilting Flume from Educational Lab Equipments.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the flume slope be reversed?
Yes. The bed slope is changed with a screw jack and can be set to positive or negative slopes.
How are discharge and depth measured?
Discharge is measured by an orifice meter with manometer (inlet/throat 50/25 mm). Depth is read with a hook or point gauge on a trolley with longitudinal and transverse movement.
What controls the depth of flow?
Sliding gates, one at the upstream end and one at the downstream end of the test section, regulate the depth of flow.
