Fluid Statics and Manometry

Fluid Statics and Manometry

Level measurement using Vernier hook and point gauge.
To measure the liquid level using a scale.
Demonstrating that the level of a free surface is not affected by the size or shape of the tube.
Use of a piezometric tube to measure pressure.
To study the basic principles of hydrostatics and to demonstrate
The behavior of liquids at rest.
To use manometer tubes to measure differential pressure.
To use a manometer tube to measure head.
To use a ‘U’ tube manometer to measure pressure differences in a gas (air over liquid).
To use a U-shaped manometer for determining the differential pressure.
To use liquids with different densities to change the ‘U’ tube manometer sensitivity.
To use an inverted pressurized ‘U’ tube manometer to measure pressure differences in a liquid.
To use an inclined manometer with different inclinations.
Observing the effect of a liquid in motion (losses due to friction).

The module is mounted on an aluminum /MS structure and painted steel Panels
