Reciprocating Pump

Reciprocating pump refers to the positive displacement pump. The provided pump is solitary acting single cylinder pump comprising of an air vessel. It could be utilized for minimum discharge at greater heads. Preparing is not compulsory since it is a positive displacement pump. Reciprocating pumps are utilized in pumping water in hilly regions. Reciprocating pumps […]

Centrifugal Pump

Introduction At the point where a specific weight of liquid is made to rotate by the force of an outward source, it is flunked away from the centrifugal axis of rotation and a centrifugal head is rapt which qualifies it to upsurge to a comparatively higher level. In the cases where more content of liquid […]

Verification of Bernoulli’s Theorem

Aim: to prove Bernoulli’s Theorem Tool: Stopwatch Measuring tank An apparatus for verification of Bernoulli’s theorem Basics: Bernoulli’s theorem says that for a stream lined, steady, incompressible and exclusive of friction fluid flow, the total of pressure head, velocity head and potential head have to be uniform. Water or any other liquid at constant head […]

Reynolds’ Experiment

Aim: To conduct Reynold’s experiment for assessment of various regimes of the flow Theory: The flow of real liquids can fundamentally happen under two altogether different regimes in particular laminar and turbulent flow. The laminar flow is described by liquid particles moving as lamina sliding over each other, with the end goal that at any […]
