3 EXPERIMENT NO: II - To Determine the Metacentric Height of a Cargo / War Ship AIM: - To Determine the Metacentric Height of a Cargo / War Ship INTRODUCTION:- Metacenter is defined as, the point about which the body starts oscillating when it is tilted (inclined) by a small angle. Metacenter may also be defined as, the point at which the line of action of force of buoyancy will meet the normal axis of the body when the body is given a small angular displacement. Metacentric Height is defined as, the distance between the Metacenter of a floating body & center of gravity. DESCRIPTION:- The ship model is approximately 37 cm size square in plan and is about 23 cm high. The model is floated on water. The ship is tilted by moving a small weight at the level of the deck of the ship. To note down the tilt of the ship, a plumb is provided which records the tilt on a graduated arc of a circle. An arrangement is made to load the JNEC CIVIL/FM-I/AUG 2010 Page 3

Apparatus-: Bernoulli s Set Up, Stop Watch, & Meter Scale. Theory-: Bernoulli s Theorem states that, in steady, ideal flow of an in compressible fluid, the total energy at any point of the fluid is constant. The total energy consists of Pressure Energy, Kinetic Energy, & Potential Energy (Datum Energy). The energy per unit weight of the fluid is Pressure Energy. Therefore, Pressure Energy = P / ρg Kinetic Energy = V 2 / 2g & Datum Energy = Z The applications of Bernoulli s theorem are-: 1) Venturi Meter 2) Orifice Meter 3) Pilot Tube JNEC CIVIL/FM-I/AUG 2010 Page 6
7 Description-: The equipment is designed as a self sufficient unit; it has a sump tank, measuring tank, & 0.5 HP monoblock pump for water circulation. The apparatus consists of Supply Tank & Delivery Tank, which are connected to a Perspex flow channel. The channel tapers for a length of 25 cm & then piezo-meter tubes are fixed at a distance of 5 cm, centre to centre for measurement of pressure head. Procedure-: 1. Keep the bypass valve open & start the pump & slowly start closing the valve. 2. The water shall start flowing through the flow channel. The level in the piezometer tubes shall start rising. 3. Open the valve at the delivery tank side, & adjust the head in piezometer tubes to a steady position. 4.

9 EXPERIMENT NO: IV - FLOW THROUGH VENTURIMETER AIM: To determine the co-efficient (K) of the Venturimeter. DESCRIPTION: Venturimeter is a device, used to measure the discharge of any liquid flowing through a pipe line. The pressure difference between the inlet and the throat of the Venturimeter is recorded using a mercury differential manometer, and the time is recorded for a measured discharge. Venturimeters are used to measure the flow rate of fluid in a pipe. It consists of a short length of pipe tapering to a narrow throat in the middle and then diverging gradually due to the reduced area and hence there is a pressure drop. By measuring the pressure drop with a manometer, the flow rate can be calculated by applying Bernoulli s equation. The meters are fitted in the piping system with sufficiently long pipe lengths (greater than 10 mm diameter) upstream of the meters. Each pipe has the respective Venturimeter with quick action cocks for pressure tappings. These pressure tappings are connected to a common middle chamber, which in turn is connected to a differential manometer. Each pipe line is provided with a flow control water is collected in an M.S. collecting tank of cross sectional are 0.4 m x 0.4 m provided with gauge scale fitting and drain valve. PROCEDURE: 1. The diameters of the inlet and throat are recorded and the internal plan dimensions of the collecting tank are measured. 2. Keeping the outlet valve closed, the inlet valve is opened fully. 3. The outlet vale is opened slightly and the manometric heads in both the limbs (h 1 and h 2 ) are noted. 4. The outlet valve of the collecting tank is closed tightly and the time t required for H rise of water in the collecting tank is observed using a stop watch. 5. The above procedure is repeated by gradually increasing the flow and observing the required readings. 6. The observations are tabulated and the co-efficient of the Venturimeter is computed.

14 EXPERIMENT NO: VII CALIBRATION OF RECTANGULAR NOTCHES Objectives To Determine the coefficient of discharge of the given Rectangular notch for different rates of flow. Equipment required The given notch fitted on an open channel of the experiment setup, hook gauge to measure the water level over the notch and measuring tank with stop watch to measure the actual flow rate. Principle In open channel flows, weirs are commonly used to either regulate or to measure the volumetric flow rate. They are of particular use in large scale situations such as irrigation schemes, canals and rivers. For small scale applications, weirs are often referred to as notches and are sharp edged and manufactured from thin plate material. The basic principle is that discharge is directly related to the water depth above the crotch (bottom) of the notch. This distance is called head over the notch. Due to the minimal installation costs flow rate measurement with a notch is very less expensive. The rectangular notch is the most commonly used thin plate weir. The flow pattern over a notch or weir is complex and there is no analytical Solution to the relationship between discharge and head so that a semi-empirical Approach has to be used. The expression for discharge over a rectangular notch is given by, where, L = width of the notch, (m) h= head of water over the notch, (m) g= acceleration due to gravity (m/s 2 ) Water is allowed to pass through the given notch at different flow rates. Actual discharge through the channel can be determined using the collecting tank and stopwatch setup. JNEC CIVIL/FM-I/AUG 2010 Page 14
15 Where, a = area of the collecting tank. (m 2 ) H = height difference of the water column in the piezometer, (m) t = time taken to rise H meters, (sec) The coefficient of discharge CD is defined as the ratio of actual discharge obtained experimentally to the theoretical discharge. i.e. Calibration is the validation of specific measurement techniques and equipment. It is the comparison between measurements of known magnitude made with one device and another measurement made in as similar way as possible with a second device. In order to use any device for measurement it is necessary to empirically calibrate them. That is, here in this case pass a known discharge through the notch and note the reading in order to provide a standard for measuring other quantities in a different location. Provided the standard mechanics of construction are followed no further calibration is required for a similar second device with same geometry. The calibration equation is stated as, where, Qac = K h n K and n are constants depending on the geometry of the notch. Taking logarithm on both sides we get, logqac = log k+n log h which is the equation of a straight line, where, log k is the y intercept and n is its slope. The graph logqac Vs. logh is to be plotted to find k and n. JNEC CIVIL/FM-I/AUG 2010 Page 15
16 Procedure 1. Check the experimental setup for leaks. Measure the dimensions of collecting tank and the notch. 2. Observe the initial reading of the hook gauge and make sure there is no discharge. Note down the sill level position of the hook gauge. 3. Open the inlet valve of the supply pipe for a slightly increased discharge. Wait for sometime till the flow become steady. 4. Adjust the hook gauge to touch the new water level and note down the reading. Difference of this hook gauge reading with initial still level reading is the head over the notch (h). 5. Collect the water in the collecting tank and observe the time t to collect H height of water. 6. Repeat the above procedure for different flow rates by adjusting the inlet valve opening and tabulate the readings. 7. Complete the tabulation and find the mean value of CD. 8. Draw the necessary graphs and calibrate the the notch. Observations and calculations Length of the rectangular notch = m Angle of the triangular notch = deg Collecting tank area = m 2 JNEC CIVIL/FM-I/AUG 2010 Page 16

18 EXPERIMENT NO: VIII CALIBRATION OF TRIANGULAR NOTCHES Objectives To Determine the coefficient of discharge of the given Triangular notch for different rates of flow. Equipment required The given notch fitted on an open channel of the experiment setup, hook gauge to measure the water level over the notch and measuring tank with stop watch to measure the actual flow rate. Principle In open channel flows, weirs are commonly used to either regulate or to measure the volumetric flow rate. They are of particular use in large scale situations such as irrigation schemes, canals and rivers. For small scale applications, weirs are often referred to as notches and are sharp edged and manufactured from thin plate material. The basic principle is that discharge is directly related to the water depth above the crotch (bottom) of the notch. This distance is called head over the notch. Due to the minimal installation costs flow rate measurement with a notch is very less expensive. The V notch or triangular notch design causes small changes in discharge to have a large change in depth allowing more accurate head measurement than with a rectangular notch. The flow pattern over a notch or weir is complex and there is no analytical solution to the relationship between discharge and head so that a semi-empirical approach has to be used. The expression for discharge over a triangular notch is given by, where, L = width of the notch, (m) θ= angle of the notch, (deg) h= head of water over the notch, (m) g= acceleration due to gravity (m/s 2 ) JNEC CIVIL/FM-I/AUG 2010 Page 18
