Product Code : SCL-CELE-14100
This laboratory apparatus is designed for the empirical study
and measurement of fluid discharge through orifices and mouthpieces,
key elements used for flow rate determination in fluid mechanics. An orifice
is defined as an opening in a tank side or bottom, while a mouthpiece is
a short tube fitted to a circular opening. The setup includes a supply tank
with a universal fixture for mounting various test pieces. A centrifugal
pump and bypass valve regulate the head over the orifice or
mouthpiece. The system is equipped with a measuring tank or flow meter
for volumetric discharge measurement and an X-Y gauge specifically for
measuring the jet trajectory from the orifice, which is used to calculate the coefficient
of velocity (Cv). The primary goal is to determine the coefficient of
discharge (Cd) for different geometries.
