Hydraulics & River Engineering Laboratory |
|||||||||
| Hydraulics and river engineering laboratory is located on the ground floor of the Civil Engineering Building . Experimental investigations on various aspects of pipe and open channel flow are conducted in the laboratory. A large tilting flume provides facilities for study of flow fields and scour pattern below water control structures in open channels. Another small tilting flume mostly used for teaching laboratory classes. | ||||||||||
