Open the inlet valve, and open and adjust the discharge valve valve until the rotameter shows a reading of about 10mm
Measure the volumetric discharge at the outlet of the Hydraulic Bench to ensure steady-state flow
Use the large beaker and video capture on your phone, time how long to fill the beaker - that gives you the flowrate in beakers/second, convert into meaningfu units
Your successive measurements must be close to one another
Verify that the manometers have a free surface (i.e. the tube at the top is not flooded)
If it is flooded, air has to be added using a pump - its an elaborate process, but the TA should be able to help. If you have to add air WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES
Record the readings of the manometers and rotameter
Repeat this procedure for a number of equidistant values of rotameter readings up to a maximum of approximately 220mm
Take at least 6 measurements
Close the discharge valve, then close the inlet valve, then shut off the pump motor.
