Reynolds Apparatus Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-MLE-13253
Jlab Export is a leading Reynolds Apparatus Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Reynolds Apparatus (code EL-MLE-13253) is a set-up for the Osborne Reynolds experiment, in which ink fed into water flowing down a vertical precision-bore glass pipe shows whether the flow is laminar or turbulent. A heater module varies the water temperature, and with it the viscosity, so steady conditions can be set over a range of temperatures. JLab manufactures this Reynolds flow-visualisation unit, model JL102/01, in Ambala, India.

Finding the Reynolds Number on This Rig
The Reynolds number, Re = vD/ν, compares inertia with viscous forces: v is the mean velocity (flow rate divided by the bore area), D the bore and ν the kinematic viscosity of the water. At low Re the ink stays a thin, straight thread; as the bottom valve is opened, the thread starts to waver and then breaks up and spreads across the pipe once the flow turns turbulent. Because the valve sets the flow without disturbing it, the change can be followed step by step against the light background of the shroud.
The heater module adds a second variable. Warmer water has a lower viscosity, so the same flow rate gives a higher Reynolds number, which shows that the regime depends on Re rather than on velocity alone. The glass beads in the tank calm the incoming water, and the levelling feet set the pipe truly vertical before a run.
