PIPE FRICTION LOSS APPARATUS WITH SS TANK-MAJOR LOSSES -VIPL-FM-7004

Model Number : EIE-FM-004

Major and minor losses associated with pipe flow in piping networks helps in determining the pumping power requirements, material and fittings selection. A good understanding of such losses helps engineers in designing optimum fluid distribution systems, process plants etc. with manometer fluid.

Construction Details :

This apparatus is designed to introduce students to major flow losses (Frictional) in Pipes. The following types of test pipes are generally provided with the apparatus


  1. ½" S.S. PIPE
  2. ½" G.I. PIPE
  3. ½" ALUMINIUM. PIPE

A flow control valve permits variation of flow rate through the circuit. Pressure tapings are incorporated so that the head loss characteristics of each pipe may be measured. These tapings are connected to a manometer bank incorporating a manifold with air bleed valve. The circuit and manometer are attached to a support frame work. supplied with with manometer fluid.
