Visualisation of Seepage Flows Apparatus .
Visualisation of Seepage Flows Apparatus
Specification:- Visualisation of Seepage Flows
- Visualisation of two-dimensional seepage flows and investigation of water pressure at various models closed water circuit
- Fluoresceine as a contrast medium
- Experimental section with tempered glass viewing window
- Fine-mesh screen to separate the experimental section from the feed and discharge chamber
- Height-adjustable overflows in the feed and discharge to adjust the water levels
- 14 measuring connections with filters to detect the groundwater levels in the experimental section
- Sheet pile" model for visualisation of streamlines
- Retaining wall" and "foundation" models for demonstration of the water pressure
- Instruments: tube manometers, tubes on the "foundation" and "retaining wall" models
