Industrial Hydraulic Technology Lab Manual

120 pages. 30 trainer exercises. This manual refers specifically to the Parker manufactured Model PSK hydraulic trainer stand.

The Experiments Described Are Required To Be Performed By Students Of Diploma Courses For The Course Hydraulics And By Students Of Degree Courses For The Course Fluid Mechanics-1.The Manual Explains The Procedure For Performing The Experiment. The Description Is In The Form Of A Detailed Laboratory Report. It Covers The Handling Of Apparatus, How To Take Observations And Present Results. The Book Includes Tables And Graph Sheets Where Observations Are To Be Recorded And Results Plotted. Students Are Required To Interpret The Results And Will Appreciate The Importance And Significance Of The Experiment To The Real-Life Situation.This Manual Will Save The Student The Bother Of Writing Out The Procedure, Drawing Tables And Purchasing Loose Graph Sheets (Including Log-Log Graph Sheets) For Pasting Into His Journal. The Book Will Form A Complete And Lasting Record Of His Work. It Will Cut Down The Time The Teacher Needs To Spend On Describing The Procedure.The Manual Will Be A Great Help To Both Teachers And Students.

33 pages; 8 Level 1 exercises; 9 Level 2 exercises. For use with Parker PSK Series pneumatic modules.

This manual presents 31 laboratory-tested experiments in hydraulics and hydraulic machines. This manual is organized into two parts. The first part equips the student with the basics of fluid properties, flow properties, various flow measuring devices and fundamentals of hydraulic machines. The second part presents experiments to help students understand the basic concepts, the phenomenon of flow through pipes and flow through open channels, and the working principles of hydraulic machines. For each experiment, the apparatus required for conducting the experiment, the probable experimental set-up, the theory behind the experiment, the experimental procedure, and the method of presenting the experimental data are all explained. Viva questions (with answers) are also given. In addition, the errors arising during recording of observations, and various precautions to be taken during experimentation are explained with each experiment. The manualis primarily designed for the undergraduate degree students and diploma students of civil engineering, mechanical engineering and chemical engineering.

In Almost All Technical Institutions Of Learning, The Laboratory Work In Any Subject Runs Concurrently With The Course In Theory Of The Subject. Consequently, The Students Perform The Laboratory Work Mechanically Without Intellectual Involvement In The Work. It Is, Therefore, Necessary That The Students, Before Conducting The Experimental Work, Are Familiarized With Elementary Theoretical And Other Aspects Relevant To The Experimental Work. This Book Is An Attempt To Serve This Objective For The Subject Of Hydraulic Engineering.The Contents Of The Book Include Description Of Basic Facilities In Hydraulic Engineering Laboratory, Elementary Terms Of Fluid Mechanics, Fundamental Equations Governing The Fluid Motion, Introduction To Open Channel Flow, A Note On Writing Laboratory Reports, And Instructional Description Of Several Experiments Including Those On Basic Hydraulic Engineering (Or Fluid Mechanics), Pipe Flow, Open Channel Flow, Boundary Layers, And Hydraulic Structures.Instructional Description Of Each Experiment Includes The Object (S), Brief Theoretical Background, Description Of One Typical Set-Up For The Experiment, Procedure For Conducting The Experiment And Carrying Out Computations. The Required Graph Sheets Have Also Been Provided In Order To Make The Book Self-Contained.
