Description
This module consists of a smooth rectangular bend with ten static tapping points on both the inner and outer curved walls, plus a further nine along the radius. Each one of the tapping points has a flexible tube with quick release connector for connection to the Multi-tube Manometer (ancillary). When air passes through the bend it creates areas of high and low pressure. The resulting pressure plots on the multi-tube manometer are highly visual which enhances student understanding. The readings allow the students to plot the pressure profile and calculate a value for the loss coefficient (K).

Learning Outcomes
Pressure distribution along the curved inner and outer walls
Radial pressure distribution and comparison with that predicted assuming free vortex velocity distribution
Calculation of loss coefficient (K)

Specifications
ATICO is committed to a programme of continuous improvement; hence we reserve the right to alter the design and product specification without prior notice.
Packed dimensions and weight:
0.2 m3; 10 kg
Inner wall:
10 tapping
Outer wall :
10 tapping
4 5 ° radial section :
9 tapping
Reference at inlet:
1 tapping

Operating Conditions
Operating Environment:
