Product Code : SCL-CELE-14000
This equipment is a self-contained water recirculating
unit designed to allow students to compare the performance and characteristics
of a Venturimeter and an Orifice Meter directly. The setup
enables the isolation and operation of either meter individually.
1. Key Components and Design
The system features both flow meters connected in parallel,
allowing for flexible experimental control.
- Flow
Meter Arrangement: The Venturimeter and Orifice Meter are
connected in parallel within the pipeline.
- Venturimeter: Made
of Clear Acrylic (transparent) and compatible with a 1 inch
Diameter Pipe.
- Orifice
Meter:
- The Orifice
plate is made of Stainless Steel.
- The housing
is made of Clear Acrylic and compatible with a 1 inch Diameter
Pipe.
- Flow
Control: Valves are provided at the downstream of each
meter. Operating these valves allows:
- Putting
any one meter into operation at a time.
- Regulating
the flow through the active meter.
2. Water Circulation and Flow Rate Measurement
The apparatus uses a closed-loop system and a precise
volumetric method for validation.
- Water
Circulation:
- An FHP
Pump (Crompton make) provides circulation from the sump tank.
- Sump
Tank: 50 Liters capacity.
- Flow
Rate Measurement (Actual Flow): This method is used to
calibrate both devices.
- Achieved
using a Measuring Tank with a Piezometer (25 Liters capacity).
- An Electronic
Stop Watch is provided to measure the time required to collect a
known volume, calculating the actual discharge ($Q_{actual}$).
- Control
Panel: Includes standard On/Off Switch and Mains Indicator.
3. Purpose and Experiments
The primary goal is the comparative study and calibration of
the two flow measurement devices.
- Calibration:
Determining the Coefficient of Discharge ($C_d$) for both the
Venturimeter and the Orifice Meter by comparing theoretical flow (from
pressure readings) with actual flow (from the measuring tank).
- Comparison:
Analyzing the differences in head loss and $C_d$ between the two
devices under similar flow conditions. (The Venturimeter typically has a
lower head loss than the Orifice Meter).
