Nozzle Meter Test Rig

Product Code : SCL-CELE-14002

This equipment is a self-contained water recirculating unit designed for the experimental study and calibration of a Nozzle Meter. This flow meter measures discharge by creating a pressure drop as fluid accelerates through a smooth restriction (the nozzle).

1. Key Components and Design

The apparatus features the nozzle meter in a transparent section for easy viewing.

  • Nozzle Meter:
    • The Nozzle itself is made of Stainless Steel for durability.
    • The Housing (Test Section) is made of Clear Acrylic (transparent), which allows students to observe the flow phenomena.
    • It is compatible with a 1 inch diameter pipe.
  • Flow Control: A Flow control valve and a by-pass valve are fitted in the water line. This arrangement allows the experiment to be conducted at different, controlled flow rates.

2. Water Circulation and Flow Rate Measurement

The system uses a closed-loop circulation and a volumetric method for precise calibration.

  • Water Circulation: Provided by an FHP Pump (Crompton make).
    • Sump Tank: 55 Liters (approx.) capacity.
  • Flow Rate Measurement (Actual Flow): This is the high-accuracy method used to calibrate the nozzle meter.
    • Achieved using a Measuring Tank (25 Liters (approx.) capacity).
    • An Electronic Stop Watch is used to measure the time taken to collect a known volume, allowing for the calculation of the actual discharge Q actual.
  • Control Panel: Includes standard On/Off Switches and Mains Indicator.

3. Purpose and Experiments

The primary experiment is the calibration of the Nozzle Meter. Students determine the Coefficient of Discharge Cd by comparing the actual flow rate (measured volumetrically) with the theoretical flow rate (calculated using the differential pressure reading, although the manometer itself is not listed in this specific spec, it is necessary for the experiment).
