Hydraulics Laboratory

Study of fluid behavior, flow systems, and hydraulic machinery for civil and mechanical engineering applications

Laboratory Overview

The Hydraulics Laboratory is a specialized facility for studying the behavior of fluids in motion and at rest. It supports both teaching and research in fluid mechanics, hydraulic engineering, and water resources systems.

The lab provides hands-on experience with flow measurement, hydraulic machines, and open channel flow systems.

Pipe Flow

Study of friction losses, bends, valves, and pipe networks.

Fluid Mechanics

Bernoulli’s theorem, momentum equation, and energy concepts.

Hydraulic Machines

Performance of pumps and turbines under different conditions.

Open Channels

Flow behavior in flumes, spillways, and hydraulic jumps.

Flow Measurement Experiments

Venturimeter & Orifice Meter

Measurement of discharge using differential pressure methods.

Rotameter

Variable area flow measurement technique.

V-Notch Weir

Determination of flow rate in open channels.

Hydraulic Machines

Pumps

Centrifugal and reciprocating pump performance analysis.

Turbines

Study of Pelton, Francis, and Kaplan turbine efficiency.

Hydraulic Bench

Basic closed-loop water supply system for experiments.

Advanced Fluid Experiments

Reynolds Apparatus

Visualization of laminar and turbulent flow patterns.

Hydraulic Jump

Study of energy dissipation in open channel flow.

Impact of Jet

Measurement of force exerted by fluid jets on surfaces.
