Open Channel Flow
Sluice Gate with Tappings
A sluice gate with ten tappings across its face. Enables students to investigate changes in pressure across the face of a sluice gate; also how the pressure varies with flow rate and depth. For use with an FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Crump Weir
A crump weir model to demonstrate alternative flow measurement techniques used in rivers and waterways. For use with FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Notched Weirs
The notch weir set works over a range of flows to allow experiments that show the relationship between flow and head and how the weirs can be used to measure flow. The apparatus includes a holder and three standard notches, one rectangular and two “V” notch. It also includes an advanced set of two notches, Cipoletti (trapezoidal) and a Sutro notch for more experiments. For use with FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Broad Crested Weirs
TecQuipment’s broad crested weirs consists of two model weirs sufficiently wide to prevent the jet from springing clear at the upstream corner. The models supplied are one block with rounded upstream and downstream corners and a similar block with sharp edges. For use with FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Spillway
The spillway comes in four parts: the spillway, detachable ski jump and plain apron with removable toothed block. It is used to observe and calculate flow and energy dissipation over spillways.
The spillway can also be used with the Energy Dissipation (FC300e3) to extend the range of possible experiments.
For use with an FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Ogee Weir with Tappings
Similar to the Spillway (FC300e) but with the addition of ten pressure tappings placed over the crest and face of the weir. The tappings are connected to a suitable Manometer (FC300w) or 32-Way Pressure Display (FCA1). It is used to study the pressure differences over the crest and face of an Ogee weir.
The spillway can also be used with Energy Dissipation (FC300e3) to extend the range of possible experiments.
For use with an FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Energy Dissipation
To be used with either the Spillway (FC300e) or the Ogee Weir with Tappings (FC300e2). The apparatus consists of a long apron and a selection of toothed and solid blocks that can be arranged in any combination on the apron. For the study of the dissipation of energy.
Siphon Spillway
A clear acrylic spillway that demonstrates the effect of a siphon spillway and the increased flow permitted when compared with an ordinary spillway of a similar height.
For use with an FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Self-Regulating Siphon
A clear acrylic, self-regulating siphon that demonstrates the automatic adjustment of its discharge over a wide range while maintaining a mostly constant water level upstream. The siphon passes a mixture of air and water.
For use with an FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Bridge Piers
A pair of sediment walls and four differently profiled bridge piers. The apparatus is used to observe the increased flow velocity and the streamline curvature between the piers. Also scouring of the stream bed.
For use with an FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Vortex Induced Vibrations
The vortex shedding apparatus demonstrates that the drag force of water induces a suspended pendulum to shed vortices from alternate sides (a Karman vortex street).
For use with an FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Roughened Beds - Gravel
Two sets of 3 x 1500 mm weighted lengths of gravel flume bed (with removable handles to aid fitting and removal). The small grade gravel being 2-5 mm and large grade 10 mm. Used to simulate flow over roughened beds.
For use with an FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
