Pipe Surge and Water Hammer | Fluid Mechanics Experiment with TecQuipment's H405

Описание: TecQuipment’s Pipe Surge and Water Hammer apparatus for studying the transient effects of pipe surge and water hammer, critical phenomena in fluid mechanics caused by sudden flow rate changes. Designed to work with TecQuipment’s volumetric hydraulic bench, the H405 enables hands-on investigations into:
**Pipe Surge**: Sudden fluid pressure increase due to velocity changes, studied using a surge valve and pressure transducers.
**Water Hammer**: Audible transient pressure waves created by rapid liquid deceleration, demonstrated with a quick-closing valve.

Using TecQuipment’s optional VDAS® (Versatile Data Acquisition System), students can capture, display, and analyse real-time data on pressure surges and acoustic waves. Understanding these phenomena is essential for designing resilient fluid systems and avoiding potential damage.
