Demonstration kit Water supply
This kit contains an easy to set up demonstration apparatus which allows to demonstrate the following:
- Usage and function of a rotary pump for pumping water around a system of pressure pipes
- Usage and function of a main supply
- Function of an elevated tank and the principle of linked water vessels
- Function of a water tower and its usage as a reservoir
Materials for demonstration
Technical specifications
Size of kit: 540 x 450 x 150 mm
-
1 - Water flow with elevated tank / water tower
experiment "Water flow with elevated tank / water tower"
Show that a significant quantity of water can be obtained from the taps even if the pump is turned off for a while.
-
2 - Relationship between the rotation speed of the impeller and the amount of water pumped
experiment "Relationship between the rotation speed of the impeller and the amount of water pumped"
Let the students examine the centrifugal pump first (construction and operation).
-
3 - Water flow without elevated tank
experiment "Water flow without elevated tank"
Show that a significant quantity of water can only be obtained from the taps while the pump is running.
