OSBORNE-REYNOLD’S DEMONSTRATION APPARATUS
The objective of this trainer is to recreate the experiment of Osborne Reynolds by reproducing laminar, turbulent and transition flows.
Assigning the corresponding Reynolds number to each of them.
The trainer includes a water supply system for a constant feeding to the calibrated center glass tube, where the different types of flow can be displayed.
A colored liquid can be injected from the tank placed at the top of the system into the central glass tube; the color allows the observation of different phenomenon.
Either the dye deposit and the glass tube are equipped with valves to regulate respectively the amount of colorant and flow.
