HF 502 SEDIMENT FLOW CHANNEL, 75 mm. wide
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This is a self-contained bench top open channel for studying bed forms with change in flow and slope as well as flow phenomena without sediment.
The channel is of a rectangular cross-section supported by steel frame. The channel sides are made of clear acrylic with tilting controlled by a manual screw jack. A stainless-steel head tank with a stilling baffle provides a smooth flow.
The water is discharged from the channel via a built-in rectangular weir to the storage tank. A fine strainer is provided in the storage tank to trap the sand sediment.
Instruction manual is also included.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
- Fixed smooth bed flow.
- Flow over mobile sand bed.
- Flow structures.
- Local scour.
- Mechanics of sediment transport.
- Bed form hysteresis.
- Depositionary features and fancies.
- Computational work.
- Flow over fixed gravel bed.
