Product Description

Sediment Transport Visualization Channel

The Sediment Transport Visualization Channel is designed to perform most of the experiments anddemonstrations usually undertaken in much larger laboratory flumes, but at much lower cost and without the need fortechnician back-up.Sand is placed along the channel bed, between the inlet tank and the over fall discharge weir. Water is circulatedaround the system at a selected flow rate. The channel slope is adjusted by means of a screw jack to which isattached a slope indicator. The channel sides are transparent in order that bed profile changes can be readilyobserved, and a section of one side is provided with graphical grid.This channel is mounted on to the manual jacking system, which provides positive step adjustment, via a hand wheel, withslope 0 to 10.The unit is supplied with manuals that describe each component of the system, installation and utilization procedures andgive many exercises.
