The GUNT Measurement of Jet Forces (HM 150.08) experimental unit demonstrates forces generated by fluid momentum changes. It allows the study of deceleration, acceleration, and deflection of a water jet and the resulting forces, relevant in applications such as Pelton turbines.
Product Features
- Transparent tank for water flow experiments
- Nozzle for generating water jets
- Four interchangeable deflectors with different deflection angles
- Weight-loaded scale to measure forces generated by the water jet
- Adjustable force via flow rate control
- Study of flow velocity, flow rate, and deflection angle effects
- Calculation of forces using the momentum equation for comparison with measurements
- Secure positioning on HM 150 base module work surface
- Water supplied and flow rate measured via HM 150 or laboratory supply
Benefits
- Hands-on understanding of forces generated by water jets
- Visual and measurable demonstration of momentum changes
- Supports learning of fluid mechanics, energy conversion, and turbine principles
- Flexible experimentation with interchangeable deflectors and flow rates
