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 Flume, not included.
5 x 0.3 x 0.45 Metre Flume
A 300 mm wide, 5 to 15 m long flume for student study and advanced research into a wide range of fluid flow topics. A huge range of ancillaries are available to extend learning potential and offers the opportunity for innovative experimentation.

Bridge Piers
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 Flume, not included.
Lift and Drag
The FC300ld Lift and Drag module works with TecQuipment’s FC300 flumes 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.
