The Flow in a Pipe Bend Module | FluidoSurge-X 362 by SCIENTICO is an experimental accessory for studying static pressure distribution in a 90° elbow duct. It features 29 pressure tapping points and transparent construction for detailed analysis. Designed for use with the Aerodynamics Trainer FluidoSurge-X 348 in fluid mechanics laboratories.

The Flow in a Pipe Bend Module FluidoSurge-X 362 is a laboratory accessory designed to investigate pressure distribution in a 90° pipe bend. Manufactured by SCIENTICO, this unit enables detailed measurement of static pressure variations caused by change in flow direction. It is intended for use with the Aerodynamics Trainer FluidoSurge-X 348.

Product Overview

FluidoSurge-X 362 consists of a transparent rectangular duct shaped as a 90° elbow. The module allows static pressure measurement at 29 tapping points distributed along the inner and outer curvature, as well as along the top and bottom surfaces of the bend. Pressure tappings are connected to the tube manometers of the compatible trainer, enabling clear visualization of pressure variation.

The experiment demonstrates how pressure decreases along the inner radius and increases along the outer radius of the bend. By comparing measured pressures to the maximum pressure value, students can construct a graphical representation of the pressure curve across the elbow.
