ZM7156 Visualisation of Flow Fields teaching aid equipment Fluids Engineering Experiment Equipment

• visualisation of flow fields by using electrolytically generated hydrogen bubbles
• platinum wire as cathode and stainless steel plate as anode for electrolysis
• shallow water channel fitted with indirect LED illumination along the experimental section
• various models are included: aerofoil, rectangle, straight plate, curved plate, cylinder (various sizes), various models for changes in cross section
• flow straightener and glass balls ensure consistent and low-turbulence flow
• different flow velocities via variable-speed circulating pump
• setting power (with display), pulse and pause length of the power and the flow velocity in the water channel
