Laboratory work

Laboratory 1 - Hydrostatic forces

Determination by mechanical means (swing balance) of the center of pressure for a partially or totally submersible flat surface in a pool of water  and comparing the results with those obtained theoretically

Laboratory 2 - Proof of Bernoulli's theorem

Demonstration / Limitation of Bernoulli's Theorem for Piezometric and Energetic Lines with a Converging Clear Acrylic Venturi  tube using pressure measurements along the tube through 8 closed piezometric outlets and comparing them with monometer readings at variable flow rates

Laboratory 3 - Linear hydraulic load losses

Measurement of longitudinal pressure losses in a vertical pipe fed from the main stand hydraulic pressure being measured using two piezometers

Laboratory 4 - Local load losses

The study of local pressure losses in fittings allowing different flow regimes and the calculation of local pressure loss coefficients. The equipment is supplied with water from the base stand

Laboratory 5 - Flows through saturated porous media

The study of infiltration through porous media and the determination of the characteristic hydraulic elements: hydraulic gradients, the influence of permeability, the shape of depression cones for a single well or two extraction wells in an aquifer with a free level
