The HM 365.32 is part of an equipment series that facilitates the investigation of a wide range of engines and machines.
Different turbines can be operated and studied with this supply module. The turbines are connected to the water circuit using a flexible hose. A powerful centrifugal pump supplies pressurised water to drive the turbine under test. All relevant measured values are acquired using sensors and are displayed on the measuring unit of the supply module. The data acquisition software enables the measured values to be further processed on a PC. The HM 365 Universal Drive and Brake Unit is used as a generator to load the turbine. A supply of three-phase mains electricity is required.
Learning Objectives / Experiments
Together with the HM 365.31 and HM 365 Universal Drive and Brake Unit, the following experiments are possible: - Turbine characteristic curves - Hydraulic power - Mechanical power - Turbine efficiency - Influence of the blade adjustment on the Francis turbine characteristic curves
