The equipment is self-contained and is close circuit system. It consists of two test sections, one for pipe surge and other for water hammer phenomenon.The whole system incorporates a head tank, measuring tank, sump tank, circulating pump, a lever operated gate valve and flow control valve.The water enters the test pipe via the constant head tank and discharges into the measuring tank. Two electronic Pressure sensors with current output of 4 – 20mA are installed on the unit.The present set-up has a facility to interface the system with computer which enables to log the experimental data using computer. The educational software and datalogging package has been developed for unit.The software environment base is of Labview of NATIONAL INSTRUMENTS, USA. This software is compatible to interfacing unit designed by C. L. Engineers. This software package provides a comprehensive educational software environment within which the investigations can be performed.This software is capable to tabulate the sample readings according to the requirement of experiment under study and results obtained can be compared.The real time data acquisition can be done by interfacing the set-up with computer using software. Software allows the user to have control on data logging, printing the stored data,preparing spread sheets in Excel etc.
