Product Code : SCL-CELE-14157
Overview
The Basic Pipe Network Tutor is a
versatile training system designed to study pressure losses and flow
behavior in various pipe network configurations. It allows students
to construct and analyze different types of pipe systems — including series,
parallel, and ring circuits — to observe real-world hydraulic behavior and
validate theoretical laws.
By drawing analogies between hydraulic and
electrical systems (pressure = voltage, flow rate = current, resistance =
pressure loss), the apparatus helps users understand network analysis
principles similar to Kirchhoff’s Laws. The unit features plastic
pipes, interchangeable fittings, control valves, and two-tube
manometers for precise measurement of pressure losses in different
arrangements.
The system includes a closed water circuit,
supply tank, pump, and measuring tank, providing a
self-contained and safe experimental setup suitable for laboratory use.
