Fluid Mechanics is a core subject in mechanical, civil, chemical, and environmental engineering. Understanding the behavior of fluids under various conditions is essential for designing pipelines, pumps, water treatment systems, hydraulic machines, and industrial fluid systems. A Fluid Mechanics Lab equips students and researchers with the practical knowledge to study fluid properties, flow behavior, pressure variation, and energy transfer in liquids and gases.
At Scilabex and Scilabstore, we provide state-of-the-art Fluid Mechanics Lab equipment for colleges, universities, IITs, and research institutions. With PAN India delivery and International shipping, our instruments ensure global access to trusted, high-quality laboratory solutions.
What is a Fluid Mechanics Lab?
A Fluid Mechanics Lab is a specialized laboratory that allows students and engineers to study:
Fluid properties: density, viscosity, and surface tension
Flow behavior: laminar, turbulent, and transitional flow
Hydraulic phenomena: flow in pipes, channels, and open conduits
Energy transfer: Bernoulli’s principle, pump efficiency, and head loss
Experimental validation: practical study of theoretical fluid mechanics concepts
The lab includes instruments such as flow meters, venturimeter, orificemeter, pitot tubes, manometers, pumps, turbines, and experimental setups to demonstrate fundamental principles of fluid dynamics.
