Product Details

The Hydrostatics Pressure Apparatus is used to investigate hydrostatic pressure in liquids at rest. The setup features a vertical panel with a clear acrylic quadrant, marked with laser-engraved lines for accurate positioning at different angles. The quadrant’s design ensures that only the pressure on the plane test surface contributes to the moment about the pivot. Weights suspended from a lever arm are used to measure this moment, while a scale indicates the water head. This apparatus helps students understand fundamental principles of fluid statics, with applications in hydraulic engineering, shipbuilding, and civil engineering design.
