Fluid Properties and Hydrostatics Bench
Product Code : EL-FMLE-10660
QUICK ANSWER: The Fluid Properties and Hydrostatics Bench is a trolley-mounted apparatus with a demonstration panel, working area and cabinet that lets students carry out numerous experiments on the hydrostatics of liquids and gases – including surface tension, capillary effects, Pascal’s law, center of pressure, static and dynamic pressure, the Boyle-Marriott law, buoyancy (via an Archimedes module) and liquid density – using a sealed water circuit with submersible pump (0.22kW, 95 Ltr/min flow rate, 12.5m head) and supply tank that lets it run independent of a mains water connection. Measurement is performed with an aneroid barometer (973–1047 mbar), Hg U-tube and U-tube manometers, a parallel plates capillary module, three hydrometers, falling-sphere viscometer tubes and a variable-scale lever balance (up to 310 gr).
On the Fluid Properties and Hydrostatics Bench, numerous experiments on the hydrostatics of liquids and gases can be carried out. A pipe section and various pressure measuring devices, together with integrated measuring containers, are fitted to a laboratory trolley with a demonstration panel, working area and cabinet. The sealed water circuit and pump, together with a supply tank, permit experiments to be performed independent of a mains water connection, a feature that makes the bench particularly suitable for use in seminar rooms and lecture theatres. Further experimental apparatus are included in the cabinet, such as a device for determining the center of pressure of a column of water, which also enables the pressure on a weir to be determined, amongst other aspects.
