The GUNT Siphon Weir HM 162.36 is a fixed control structure for open channel flow experiments in the HM 162 flume. Siphon weirs are used to study high-capacity discharge processes and spillway behavior, simulating real-world applications in dams and reservoirs.
Product Features
- Fixed siphon weir for high specific discharge capacity
- Transparent design with air vent to observe siphon function and discharge capacity
- Discharge initiates automatically when water level rises to a set point
- Flow stops abruptly when air is sucked into the siphon as water level falls
- Air vent allows comparison of siphon performance with and without venting
- Discharge can be interrupted anytime using the air vent
Benefits
- Enables detailed study of siphon flow and high-capacity discharge
- Visual observation of siphon behavior and flow interruption
- Supports experiments simulating spillway conditions in dams and reservoirs
- Durable transparent construction for repeated laboratory experiments
Why Choose GUNT Siphon Weir?
The GUNT Siphon Weir HM 162.36 provides a reliable and transparent solution for studying high-capacity siphon flows, allowing safe observation of discharge initiation and interruption in open channel experiments.
