Open Channel Sediment Transport Demonstrator Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-CELE-14207
The Open Channel Sediment Transport
Demonstrator is designed to study the principles of open-channel flow
and bed-load sediment transport using sand as the medium. It enables the
observation of subcritical and supercritical flow regimes with or without
sediment transport.
The apparatus features an inclined flume
with a closed water circuit, allowing precise control of flow conditions.
The tempered glass sidewalls provide clear visualization, while all
components in contact with water are made from corrosion-resistant materials
for durability.
The adjustable flume inclination allows
fine slope control to produce uniform flow. The system includes a flow-optimized
inlet to minimize turbulence and a sediment trap to prevent material
recirculation. Additional accessories such as a sluice gate and bridge
pier allow the study of scour formation and siltation around
structures. Flow visualization can be enhanced with the use of a contrast
medium.
