Orifice & Mouthpieces Apparatus
Model: MSORIMOU11SWISS
The Orifice & Mouthpieces Apparatus is a versatile setup designed to determine the coefficient of discharge (Cd) for orifices and mouthpieces. It is widely used for experimental studies in fluid mechanics and hydraulics. The apparatus provides a practical understanding of fluid flow measurement through orifices and mouthpieces, enabling accurate calculations of discharge rates.

Description
·       Orifice:
An orifice is an opening in the side or bottom of a tank, typically with a closed perimeter, that allows fluid to discharge.
·       Mouthpiece:
A mouthpiece is a short tube fitted to a circular opening in a tank, facilitating controlled fluid discharge.
·       Functionality:
This apparatus is designed to experimentally determine the coefficient of discharge for both orifices and mouthpieces. It is equipped with mechanisms to measure discharge rates and other related parameters.
