GUNT Installation Technology Trainer Losses in Straight Pipes Pressure Curves of Flowing and Static Fluids

The GUNT Installation Technology Trainer visualizes the pressure curves of flowing and static incompressible fluids in pipes. It clearly demonstrates the differences in pressure behavior between fluids in motion and fluids at rest in pipe systems, making it ideal for explaining hydrostatic pressure concepts in static and moving liquids.

Product Features

  • The pressure curves of fluids in motion and fluids at rest in pipes are fundamentally different from one another.
  • For the same supply pressure, losses occur in flowing fluids due to pipe friction, manifesting as pressure losses.
  • In fluids at rest, static pressure in horizontal pipe elements remains constant.
  • The trainer visualizes pressure curves of flowing and static incompressible fluids in pipes.
  • Suitable for explaining hydrostatic pressure concepts in static and moving liquids.
  • Clear panel mounted on a sturdy, movable frame for easy setup and observation.
  • Supply pressure generated by an elevated tank with refill mechanism and overflow to ensure constant pressure.
  • Measuring section located at the end of the tank.
  • Flow velocity can be adjusted at two points to vary flow conditions.
  • Six pressure measuring points along the measuring section with readings via tube manometer referencing liquid column height.

Benefits

  • Provides practical visualization of pressure loss due to pipe friction in flowing fluids.
  • Demonstrates static pressure constancy in fluids at rest in horizontal pipes.
  • Enhances understanding of fluid mechanics principles relevant to installation technology.
  • Sturdy and movable design for classroom or lab environments.
