Orifice Discharge & Free Jet Flow Apparatus | FluidoSurge-X 116
A CE-certified flow measurement apparatus for calibrating and comparing venturimeter, orifice meter, and rotameter flow-rate instruments, manufactured by Scientico India to ISO 9001:2015 standards. Supplied with calibration certificate, operation manual, and complete export documentation. Designed for Fluid Mechanics laboratories in engineering colleges and technical institutions.
The Orifice Discharge and Free Jet Flow Apparatus FluidoSurge-X 116 is designed for experimental analysis of jet flow and discharge through orifices. It enables investigation of vertical discharge, horizontal jet trajectory, and flow coefficients under constant head conditions. The apparatus combines visual observation with velocity and diameter measurement techniques. It is intended for fluid mechanics laboratory education and experimental verification of flow theories.
Product Overview
The SCIENTICO FluidoSurge-X 116 Orifice Discharge and Free Jet Flow Apparatus provides a complete setup for studying flow through different nozzle geometries. The system consists of a transparent Plexiglas cylinder with adjustable overflow and scale for accurate head control. Water drains vertically through interchangeable nozzles under hydrostatic pressure, allowing measurement of jet velocity using a Pitot tube and U tube manometer, and jet diameter using a micrometer. The apparatus also supports horizontal jet experiments where jet trajectories are traced using adjustable probes and recorded on a white panel.
