Key Features
- Impeller-based sensing directly proportional to flow velocity
- Direct digital readout of flow velocity on a battery-operated display
- Impeller tube can be moved vertically with a graduated scale for position readings
- Mounted on a carrier that can be fixed at any position along the experimental section
- Measures flow velocities from 0 to 5 m/s
- Simple, direct-reading alternative to manometer-based velocity measurement
Applications
The Velocity Meter accessory is used with the experimental flume to measure local flow velocity at different points and depths directly and quickly, helping students study velocity distribution and profile in open-channel flow experiments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How does the Velocity Meter measure flow velocity?
An impeller is rotated by the flow at a speed proportional to the flow velocity, which is displayed directly on a digital readout.
Q2. What is the flow velocity measuring range?
The meter measures flow velocities from 0 to 5 m/s.
Q3. Can the impeller be positioned at different depths?
Yes, the impeller tube can be moved vertically, with a graduated scale (0 to 300 mm, 1 mm graduation) indicating its position.
Q4. Is the display battery operated?
Yes, the flow velocity is shown on a battery-operated digital display.
Q5. Where is the velocity meter mounted?
It is mounted on a carrier that can be fixed at any position along the experimental section of the flume.
