Visualisation of streamlines in an open channel Deluxe

This unit can be used to visualise flow around drag bodies and flow phenomena in open channels.

• visualisation of streamlines during incident flow and flow around various weirs and drag bodies
• transparent experimental flume
• incident flow demonstrated on two weirs
• demonstration of flow around four different drag bodies
• contrast medium: ink
• distributor for contrast medium with seven nozzles
• water level in the experimental flume adjustable via sluice gate at the water inlet and weir at the water outlet
• flow straightener for even, non-vortical water inlet
• water supply using the base module or via laboratory supply
• flow visualisation using prepared CFD simulations
• digital multimedia teaching material available online: e-learning course, prepared CFD simulations, worksheets, videos
