Reynold's Apparatus

The Set up is designed to verify Reynold's Apparatus experimentalty. The Apparatus consists of a glass tube with one end having bell mouth entrance connected to a water tank. At the other end of the glass tube a cock is provided to vary the rate of flow. Flow rate of water can be measured with the help of Measuring Cylinder and Stop Watch supplied with the set-up. A capillary tube is introduced centrally in the bell mouth. To this tube dye is fed from a small container, placed at the top of Constant head Tank, through polythene tubing. 
EXPERIMENTS

• To study different types of flow.

• To determine the Reynold's Number and hence the type of flow either laminar or turbulent
