Soil and Water Model Tank Manufacturer in Zambia

Practical demonstration and visualisation are essential elements of fluid flow study. This Drainage and Seepage Tank has been designed to allow students to make an experimental study of flow through permeable media.

Demonstration Capabilities:

  • Flow line visualisationFlow net construction
  • Flow net constructionDetermining seepage rates
  • Determining seepage ratesVerification of Darcy’s Law
  • Verification of Darcy’s LawComparison
  • Comparison of experimental results with analytical solutions

Typical student experiments include:

  • Seepage underneath a sheet pile wall. Seepage through an earth dam
  • Control of seepage through permeable soils by sub-soil drainage
  • Distribution of uplift pressure on hydraulic structures
  • Reducing uplift pressure and lateral thrust by drainage
  • Formation and behaviour of ‘Quicksand’
  • Stability of an earth dam
  • Draining an excavation site using wells

Basic Accessories

  • Foundation pressure plate
  • Straight permeable membrane
  • Curved permeable membrane
  • Lateral pressure plate
  • Tile drain
  • Ordering Specification

    A self-contained facility for study of flow through permeable media. The tank has a toughened glass front and aluminium back to permit the insertion of pressure tappings as required. Six tapping points are provided. The design of the side supports allows free access to the interior with minimum sight obstruction. Supply includes sump tank, pump, starter and control valve. Also a dye injection system and a selection of models.

    Comprehensive instruction manual with data sheets and student experiments.
