About This Product
With the pump forcing water through the turbine, students tighten the band brake step by step and record how speed, torque and power change. Repeating the run with each turbine lets a class compare impulse and reaction designs on the same rig. Educational Instrument can arrange export supply of the Turbine Dynamometer to Republic of the Congo, Kazakhstan, Brazil, Chad and Lithuania.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the turbine loaded on the Turbine Dynamometer?
A control on the dynamometer adjusts a band brake acting on the brake drum of the turbine, which loads the turbine.
What does the Turbine Dynamometer measure?
It measures and displays the speed, torque and shaft power at the dynamometer.
