Measurement of Jet Forces Educational Equipment Hydrodynamics Experiment Apparatus

AFF036 Measurement of Jet Forces Educational Equipment Hydrodynamics Experiment Apparatus

Description

 investigation of jet forces on deflectors

 demonstration of the principle of linear momentum

 four interchangeable deflectors with different deflection angles

During deceleration, acceleration and deflection of a flowing fluid, there is a change of velocity and thus a change in momentum. Changes in momentum result in forces. In practice, the motive forces are used to convert kinetic energy into work done, for example in a Pelton turbine.

Learning objectives/experiments
