Inclination: 0-3%.
End compartments: 2 ea.
Wells: 2 ea.
Spray nozzles: 8 nozzles with separate shutoff valves.
Flow measurement
Rain water: Variable area flow meter.
Run off: Calibrated weir.
Manometer: 1 ea.
Upper walls: Clear acrylic.
Accessories: - Rectangular ring, circular ring, confined equifer, cylindrical pier.
Power supply: 220 V, 1 Ph, 50 Hz. Other power supply is available on request.
Typical Tests
Investigation of rainfall/runoff relationships for dry, saturated and impermeable catchments of various slopes for surface runoff.
Effect of interflow on outflow hydrograph.
Simulation of multiple and moving storms.
Cone of depression for single well and interaction of cones of depression for two adjacent wells.
De-watering of excavation sites by use of wells.
Flow from a well in a confined aquifer.
Demonstration of watersheds for a simulated island with rainfall and well flows.
Sediment transport and meanders in simulated rivers.
A metal frame supports the tank and houses a storage tank.
Water is drawn from the storage tank by a pump and separately supplied to the overhead nozzles and/or the two end compartments via a flow meter and pipings with valve control.
Run-off from the catchment is measured by a calibrated rectangular weir or returns directly to the storage tank.
