General Description
The Laminar Flow Demostration unit, "FME20", designed by EDIBON, allows a complete study of the bi-dimensional problems associated with laminar flow. Thanks to an efficient system of dye injection we can observe the different models of flow. It consists on an enlargement of the device of Hele-Shaw.
Water is supplied to the accessory from the driving mouth of the Hydraulics Bench (FME00) or from the Basic Hydraulic Feed System (FME00/B), by a flexible pipe.
Then, water passes through a damping deposit that eliminates the turbulence.
It has a dye injection system, which consists of a deposit, a flow control valve and some needles that allow for a better visualization of the flow around the different hydrodynamic models, placed in the central part of the channel.
The unit can be levelled with the adjustable legs.
