FC300M - Experiment
Vortex Induced Vibrations
The vortex shedding apparatus demonstrates that the drag force of water induces a suspended pendulum to shed vortices from alternate sides (a Karman vortex street).
For use with an FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Description
Alternatives
Bridge Piers
FC300J - Experiment
A pair of sediment walls and four differently profiled bridge piers. The apparatus is used to observe the increased flow velocity and the streamline curvature between the piers. Also scouring of the stream bed.
For use with an FC300 Flow Channel, not included.
Lift and Drag
FC300LD - Experiment
The FC300ld Lift and Drag module works with TecQuipment’s FC300 Flow Channel range. It provides a means to measure and display the lift or drag on a set of models consisting of two different sized cylinders and a hydrofoil.
