Hydraulic Measuring Instruments
It is designed to bathymetric, water column velocity profile, and acoustic bottom tracking data as part of a hydrographic survey.
The key component of the system is Hydro Surveyor Acoustic Doppler Profiler (ADP) platform
User friendly data collection software.
Highly accurate and reliable.
Rain Simulator and Irrigation Systems Unit (2x1 m), is a self-contained unit designed to demonstrate some physical processes found in hydrology and fluvial geomorphology, including: rainfall hydrographs for catchment areas of varying permeability, the formation of rivers and their features and effects of sediment transport, the abstraction of ground water by drains, both with and without surface recharge from rainfall, etc.
This unit allows demonstrating, on a small scale, the hydrological principles of ground water flow and the applications of these principles to some engineering constructions. Moreover, it allows to study the use of drains for water abstraction, de-watering and drainage of lakes, and demonstration of flood risks linked to land drainage works.
The SonTek FlowTracker2 handheld Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter is a portable, and precise wading discharge measurement instrument.
With rugged construction for any climate and multiple display options for both day and night, FlowTracker2 goes whenever and wherever you need it to go. This includes: Natural Streams, Open Channels & Lakes, Irrigation Canals, Mining Channels, Water Treatment, Storm Water, Weirs / Flumes.
Embedded GPS for georeferencing with automatic or manual fixes.
Battery life icon on the screen at all times. Pre-load the spare cartridge and replace, even at mid measurement, with no data loss.
The tilting flume is designed to conduct various experiments at various bed slopes from in upstream and down stream. The flume has a perspex window to visualize the flow over models fixed in flume. The flume is provided with gates on upstream & downstream side to control the flow.
Students can thus conduct the Various experiments like Study of open channel flume, Use of hook and point gauges to measure water level, Use of a Pitot-static tube to measure flow rate and velocity profiles, Understanding the relationship between water level above the crest of a weir and flow rate over the weir, Using hydraulic structures to control level eg syphon spillways, Understanding sub-and super-critical flow and the underlying characteristics of waves, Hydraulic jump, Using hydraulic structures for control of flow eg sluice gate, Applying and understanding Manning’s formula.
The Delft bottle type suspended load sampler is the standard set for sampling sediment particles larger than 50 μm in rivers and other water courses. This set is applicable in velocities up to 2.5 m/s and can be used at any depth.
Measuring suspended sediment transport in rivers and other water courses
The sampler can be used with or without frame
Can be used at any depth
Sturdy construction
Easy to use
The bed-load transport meter, type Arnhem is a sampler, used to measure bed-load of coarse sand and fine gravel in rivers and in other watercourses.
Bed transport meter frame has a stabilizing tail fin
Used for measuring bed-load of coarse sand and fine gravel
Mouth permits water and fines to flow through
Mouth shaped to keep initial water speed
