FME14 自由・強制渦巻き流実験装置

The Forced and Free Vortex unit, "FME14", designed by EDIBON, has a cylindrical and transparent deposit with two inlet pipes diametrically opposed, slightly inclined to produce a whirl. This deposit has an outlet in the center of its base, where three mouthpieces with orifices of different diameters can be coupled. These mouthpieces generate the free vortex and a rotor blade creates the forced vortex acting like a flux strangler shaker.

The profile of the formed vortex is determined by a vortex height meter, placed in the cylinder’s upper part, which measures the diameter of the vortex at different depths.

The total pressure can be measured by placing a Pitot’s tube in the bridge of measurement.

It also has adjustable legs to level the unit.
