Product Overview
The Bernoulli's Equation Demonstration Educational Unit Operations Pilot Plant is an integrated laboratory apparatus designed for undergraduate engineering education. This unit provides students with a visual and practical platform to investigate the principles of fluid mechanics, specifically the conservation of energy in steady-flow systems. By allowing hands-on measurement of pressure changes along a variable-cross-section conduit, the system helps bridge the gap between theoretical mathematical equations and real-world hydraulic behavior.
To ensure this equipment aligns with your specific instructional laboratory requirements, we offer comprehensive customization services. Both the hardware components and the software interface can be customized to match your curriculum design, space constraints, and data-acquisition preferences.
Key Teaching Functions and Advantages
- Direct Visual Learning: Built with transparent rigid PVC pipelines, the unit allows students to observe fluid behavior directly, enhancing their understanding of flow phenomena.
- High-Density Data Collection: Equipped with 23 pressure-measuring glass tubes alongside dedicated venting points at abrupt expansion and contraction sections, the system delivers a detailed hydraulic profile of the fluid path.
- Practical Engineering Training: Students gain hands-on experience with standard process components, including a circulation pump, rotameter, storage tanks, and various flow-control valves.
- Sturdy and Mobile Construction: The entire assembly is mounted on a high-grade aluminum alloy frame with industrial casters, making it easy to relocate and store within multi-use university laboratories.

Academic and Curriculum Integration
This educational pilot plant is designed for departments of Chemical Engineering, Civil and Hydraulic Engineering, Environmental Engineering, and Food Engineering. It acts as a physical counterpart to foundational coursework, enabling students to perform experimental validation of core fluid mechanics concepts.
The experiments conducted on this unit align directly with the core curriculum topics found in standard engineering reference texts:
- Fluid Statics and Dynamics: Principles covered in Unit Operations of Chemical Engineering regarding the mechanical energy balance and Bernoulli's equation applications are demonstrated through physical measurements of potential head, pressure head, and velocity head.
- Momentum Transfer: Concepts found in Transport Processes and Unit Operations, such as fluid flow through closed conduits, pressure drops, and localized losses in pipes due to fittings or sudden cross-sectional changes, are analyzed quantitatively using the system's multiple pressure taps.
- Process Piping Design: The layout of the piping, selection of valves, and integration of flow-measurement devices reflect the practical design considerations detailed in Chemical Engineering Design, preparing students for future industrial projects.
By correlating textbook nomenclature with the physical pressure indications and flow controls of this unit, students develop a more intuitive understanding of fluid dynamics principles.
To further support your educational objectives, we can modify the hardware configurations, such as sensor selections or pipe geometries, and adapt the software to support either manual logging or digital data acquisition.
