Description
In fluid dynamics, a vortex is a circular flow of a fluid caused by sufficiently large velocity gradients. In practice, this can be observed when water flows out of a basin into a pipe or when two fluids with different speeds meet each other.
The experimental unit allows you to produce and study free and forced vortices.
The experimental unit has a transparent tank with nozzles, various inserts on the water drain, an impeller and a point gauge for detecting the vortex profiles.
To form the free vortex, water is introduced radially into the tank and flows through a ring to slow down. The vortex is created by the flow out of the tank. There are four easily replaceable inserts of various diameters available for the drain. The point gauges are used to measure the surface profiles of the vortices. The speed of the vortex is also determined.
The experimental unit is positioned easily and securely on the work surface of the base module. The water is supplied and the flow measured by base module. Alternatively, the experimental unit can be operated by the laboratory supply.
