Description
Hydraulic engineering is a crucial part of engineering. How do we achieve the necessary river depth for ships? How does openchannel flow change during flooding? How far upstream do measures such as control structures have an effect? How can the discharge at barrages be calculated? By using experimental flumes in laboratories it is possible to teach the basic knowledge required to understand the answers to these questions and to develop possible solutions.

The experimental flume AFF128 with a closed water circuit has a crosssection of 309x450mm. The length of the experimental section is between 5m and – with further extension elements AFF128 – a maximum of 12,5m. The side walls of the experimental section are made of tempered glass, which allows excellent observation of the experiments. All components that come into contact with water are made of corrosionresistant materials (stainless steel, glass reinforced plastic). The inlet element is designed so that the flow enters the experimental section with very little turbulence.
