Pitot Static Tube Set-Up/Pitot Tube Setup (Model No. HVO-FM-03)
Pitot Static Tube Set-Up
Description
A Pitot tube is used to measure the local velocity at a given point in the flow stress. A pitot tube of standard design made of copper/SS is supplied and is fixed below Vernier scale. The Vernier scale is capable to measure the position of Pitot Tube in transparent pipe section. The pipe has a flow control valve to regulate the flow. A U-tube manometer is provided to determine the velocity head.
Present set-up is self-contained water re-circulating unit, provided with a sump tank and a centrifugal pump etc. Flow control valve and by-pass valve are fitted in water line to conduct the experiment on different flow rates. Flow rate of water is measured with the help of measuring tank and stopwatch.
Experiments
- To find the point velocity at the center of a tube for different flow rates of water and calibrate the Pitot tube.
- To plot velocity profile across the cross section of pipe
Features
- Acrylic test section
- Closed loop water circulation
- Compact & stand alone set up
- Stainless Steel tanks
- Superb Painted structure
- Simple to operate & maintain
Utilities Required
- Electric supply 0.5 kW, 220V AC, Single Phase
- Water supply Tap water connection ½” BSP
Distilled water @ 60 liters (optional)
- Floor Area with Drain facility
