Fundamental Fluids

The study of fluid mechanics and the forces on them is becoming increasingly popular. With applications in various disciplines, including mechanical, civil, chemical and biomedical engineering, the Fundamental Fluids range from Matrix allows students to gain a hands-on understanding of the key principles. The main workstation is supplied along with sixteen individual components, allowing students to build nine different experiments without needing additional tools. Six of the experiments are connected via USB to the pressure and flow sensors, which allows results to be automatically plotted on a graph for analysis. The remaining three experiments are carried out and plotted manually.

Each component is attached to the main workstation with quick-release latches, allowing students to build and dismantle each experiment quickly. A full free curriculum is provided with easy-to-follow worksheets.

System Benefits

    The main workstation is built of rugged steel and has a built-in panel that allows you to easily clip on the required component. Two water tanks with a combined capacity of 3L and inbuilt connectors allow students to set up each experiment quickly. When in storage, the flow pipes drop down into the frame, all components are stored within, the drip tray doubles as a back panel to enhance protection.
