Pitot Static Tube Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-CELE-14160
Overview
The Pitot Static Tube Apparatus is
designed to measure the local velocity of fluid flow at a given point
within a pipe or duct.
The system demonstrates the fundamental principle of converting velocity
head into pressure difference and enables the plotting of velocity
profiles across the pipe cross-section.
The apparatus consists of a Pitot tube
mounted on a Vernier scale to allow precise positioning within the
transparent test section.
A U-tube manometer measures the differential pressure corresponding to
the velocity head.
The entire setup operates as a self-contained, water-recirculating unit
with flow regulation and measurement facilities, suitable for both
demonstration and quantitative analysis.
Key
