Construction & Design Details-
The apparatus features a horizontal plexiglass pipe section mounted to allow unobstructed viewing of flow patterns. A raised supply tank with an overflow tube maintains a constant water head and uniform inlet conditions. Ink injection is controlled to produce well-defined streamlines. The system can be operated using either laboratory mains water or a hydraulic bench with a closed water circuit.
