HM 161.51 Venturi Flume Show data sheet (pdf file)
Technical Description
The HM 161.51 is a fully functional model of a Venturi channel measuring device. Its action is produced by a horizontally arranged constriction of the channel cross-section; this is formed using 2 Plexiglass side bodies. In this way the cross-section of the constriction is clearly visible. The flow processes of subcritical and supercritical flow can be clearly observed. Along with a flow rate measurement, an energy balance after Bernoulli can be clearly demonstrated in conjunction with the HM 161.50 Pitotstatic Tube and HM 161.59.
Learning Objectives / Experiments
· Flow rate measurement in open flumes using the continuity equation
· Investigation of flow and supercritical flow states
For measurement of water levels, the use of the HM 161.52 Level Gauge on the moving HM 161.59 Instrument Carriage is recommended.

·
