Reynold Apparatus

The apparatus is used to verify the Bernoulli’s Theorem.

The apparatus is used :
 To visualize different flow conditions i.e.
 Laminar flow,
 Transition flow,
 Turbulent flow
 To find out the Reynolds number

 A Centrifugal pump of 25mm x 25mm with ½ HP Motor
 M.S. SUMP TANK 80 X 33 X 30cm to collect the water.
 M.S. MEASURING TANK 45 X 30 X 30cm fitted with piezometer tube to measure the discharge. Damper is used to collect the water in M.S. MEASURING TANK for certain time.
 G.I. pipe of internal dia 25.4mm (1") and G.M. ISI mark Control Valve and regulating valves are used to circulate water.
 Bye-pass line is also used to regulate the discharge. This apparatus consists of a Perspex tube of internal dia 25mm dia x 100cm long. A needle and color dye injector tank is used to visualize the flow.

The tanks are well epoxy painted inside to prevent rust hence increase the life of tank.

 To visualize different flow conditions.
 To obtain the critical velocity.
