Flow Visualisation Apparatus
Product Code : JA-FMAHLE-9998
The Flow Visualisation Apparatus (SKU JA-FMAHLE-9998), supplied by JaincoLab, makes streamlines visible as water flows in a thin gap between two plates and ink is injected as a contrast medium. The hinged glass top plate lets models be changed, and the bottom plate has water connections that act as sources and sinks and can be combined as required. This streamline visualisation apparatus comes with drag bodies, changes of cross-section and a rubber plate for making models.
Specifications
The flow visualisation apparatus is specified by a flow chamber of two plates 2 mm apart, a glass upper plate, four source/sink connections, 15 ink injection holes and a 500 mL ink tank, with valves for flow velocity, sources, sinks and ink dosage.

Experiments with the streamline visualisation apparatus
The apparatus is used to show streamline patterns of two-dimensional flow around bodies and through changes in section, and to combine sources and sinks into classical potential-flow patterns.
- Streamlines around drag bodies
- Flow through sudden changes in cross-section
- Sources, sinks and their combinations
- Students designing and testing their own model shapes

Frequently asked questions
How are streamlines made visible?
Ink is injected through 15 holes into water flowing in a 2 mm gap between two plates.
Can models be changed?
Yes. The upper glass plate is hinged, and a rubber plate is included for making your own models.
Can sources and sinks be simulated?
Yes. Four water connections in the bottom plate act as sources or sinks and can be combined.
