Objective

To determine that the energy between two points are equal and to determine the existence of Head Loss
equation.

Equipment

 Hydraulic Bench
 Bernoulli’s Apparatus
 Constant and Variable Head tank
 Beaker or Graduated cylinder
 Stop watch

Procedures

(1) Assemble the Hydraulic bench as seen from the diagram

(2) Turn on the bench and allow water to flow, wait until the water level stabilizes

(3) Measure the flow rate by allowing water to flow at a certain volume over time.
