VENTURIMETER AND ORIFICEMETER APPARATUS - MODEL VIPL-FM-7011-

Model Number : EIE-FM-001

A venturi meter has a converging conical inlet, a cylindrical throat and a diverging recovery cone. Orifice and Venturi meter are used to measure the rate of flow of liquid. The apparatus is designed to measure the co efficient of discharge of orifice meter & Venturi meter. The trainer is self sufficient unit to study the calibration & characteristics of venturi meter & orifice. The calibration of these meters can be studied by comparing calculated flow with actual flow measured in measuring tank. Detailed Specification as follows: Note on Manometer Fluid (Mercury): Please note that Mercury is a precious/restricted heavy metal and is not included in the standard scope of supply. It is required to fill the U-Tube and Inclined Tube Manometers for experimental operation. Mercury is available at an extra cost of ₹30,000/- + GST (as applicable).

Construction Details :

  • The setup consists of sump tank, pump, orifice meter, venturimeter & measuring tank.
  • The entire system is mounted on a sturdy MS frame.
  • The apparatus consists of two pipelines emerging out from a common manifold.
  • One pipeline contain a Venturimeter and other contain  an Orifice meter.
  • The pressure tapings from the Venturimeter and Orifice meter  are taken to differential manometer to measure pressure   difference.
  • The Venturimeter & Orifice meter are connected in parallel  and anyone of them can be put in operation by operating valves provided at the downstream.
  • These valves can also regulate the flow.
  • Present set‑up is self‑contained water re‑circulating unit.
  • Flow control valve and by‑pass valve are fitted in water  line to conduct the experiment on different flow rates.
  • Flow rate of water is measured with the help of measuring  tank and stopwatch.
