Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machinery lab

Vignan Institute of Technology and Science > Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machinery lab

The purpose of Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machinery laboratory is to reinforce and enhance understanding of the fundamentals of Fluid mechanics and Hydraulic machines. The experiments here are designed to demonstrate the applications of the basic fluid mechanics principles and to provide a more intuitive and physical understanding of the theory. The main objective is to introduce a variety of classical experimental and diagnostic techniques, and the principles behind these techniques. The list of equipments are tabulated below.
