Energy Losses in Pipes
Product Code : EL-FMLE-10657
QUICK ANSWER: This Energy Losses in Pipes trainer is a pipe-friction test rig with ten pipe sections of differing material, diameter and geometry, including straight sections, three types of flow diversion (pipe bend, pipe angle and segment bend), shut-off valves and fittings, gradual and sudden contractions and enlargements, and a parallel dual line, used to investigate the pressure losses that pipe friction and deflections cause in flowing water. Pressure measuring points built as annular chambers directly upstream and downstream of each pipe element feed a differential pressure meter, a manometer panel or twin tube manometers in pairs, while a Rota meter displays the flow, allowing losses in similar components and different types of pressure measurement to be compared. The differential pressure meter reads 0…2000mbar, the twin tube manometer 1000mmWC, the 6 tube manometers 340mmWC, and the flow rate measuring range is 0…1600L/h.
The Trainer includes ten pipe sections with different pipe elements. Four of the pipe sections are straight and designed with a constant cross-sectional area, differing from each other in material and cross-section; one of the pipe sections includes three different types of flow diversion: pipe bend, pipe angle and segment bend. Two other pipe sections include various shut-off valves and fittings with different resistances, and the opening characteristics of the valves and fittings are determined in the experiment. Two other pipe sections contain gradual and sudden contractions and enlargements, and the last pipe section is designed as a parallel, dual line.
In pipes through which water flows, the pipe friction and various deflections cause pressure losses that manifest themselves as pressure losses. The pressure measuring points in the pipe system are designed as annular chambers and are located directly upstream and downstream of the pipe elements, ensuring a precise pressure measurement, and the sensors are connected in pairs to a differential pressure meter, a manometer panel or twin tube manometers where the respective differential pressure can be read. The flow is displayed on a Rota meter, allowing the investigation by experimentation of pressure losses in pipes and different pipe elements.
