Hydrogen Bubble Flow Visualisation System

• A compact, bench mounted, self- contained unit used for flow visualisation studies using water as the working fluid.
• The unit comprises a flow tank incorporating the working section and pumped recirculation system, plus a separate electronic control console.
• A low voltage variable speed pump with a unique fluid-drive unit is located under the working section.
• The electronic control console incorporates manual controls and a 4 line, 20 digit LCD that displays the relevant operating parameters.
• Flow patterns in the water are indicated by small hydrogen bubbles that are generated by an interchangeable fine platinum/ iridium wire cathode.
• A low voltage light source illuminates the hydrogen bubbles in the working section.
• Flow visualisation studies can be carried out using plain tap water without the need for additives.
• Optional camera mount allows still camera, video camera or web-cam
• (not supplied) to record the flow patterns.
• The following models, supplied for flow visualization studies, are made of clear polished acrylic and supplied in a protective container:

- One pair 330mm long straight guides - One pair spacer blocks for straight guides (grey PVC) - One pair blocks with radiused ends - Four cylinders 6mm, 12mm, 19mm and 25mm diameter - One aerofoil section - One flat plate with radiused end - One rectangular block 70mm x 40mm x 25mm - One curved plate - A toolkit is supplied - A user instruction manual provides installation, commissioning, maintenance data, experimental information and suggested flow visualisation demonstrations.
