Culvert
Product Code : LSK-FM-10445
Culvert (SKU LSK-FM-10445) is a pair of clear model culverts, one circular and one rectangular in section, for observing and calculating both open and orifice flow through a culvert. Students can see the change from free-surface flow to a submerged inlet as the upstream level rises. The models suit highway, drainage and hydraulic engineering practicals in civil engineering courses. Science Lab Supplies manufactures the two culvert models under its own roof at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, and its sales desk there answers colleges, contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The culvert pair is broken down into single facts in the table. In short, there are two clear models, one with a circular section and one with a rectangular section; being clear, both let students watch the water surface inside the barrel, so open flow and orifice flow at the inlet can be seen as well as calculated.

Applications and Experiments for the Culvert Models
With a culvert fitted in the channel, students raise the flow step by step and record upstream depth against discharge. At low heads the culvert runs as an open channel; at higher heads the inlet submerges and behaves like an orifice. Repeating with the second section compares circular and rectangular culverts.
- B.Tech / B.E. civil engineering: culvert hydraulics and inlet control.
- Head against discharge for open and orifice flow, with orifice contraction measured separately on the Flow Through an Orifice apparatus.
- Diploma highway and drainage courses: sizing cross-drainage works, linked to runoff and hydrograph studies on the Hydrology And Rainfall Apparatus.
Standard Scope of Supply
The supply is the pair of clear culvert models, one of circular and one of rectangular section. The flow channel in which they are tested and its water supply are separate items, and any optional accessories you need are named on the quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You can ask for a price on one pair of culverts or on sets for several student groups, and the quotation gives packing, delivery time and price for that quantity. Other engineering lab equipment in India from our range can be quoted at the same time.
Under its Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq and Nigeria. To have the culvert pair priced, leave a message on the contact page or tick it into the enquiry cart; colleges buying by tender can start from the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between open and orifice flow in a culvert?
In open flow the water has a free surface inside the culvert. When the upstream level submerges the inlet, the entrance acts as an orifice and discharge depends on the head above it.
Why are there two culvert shapes?
The pair has one circular and one rectangular section, so students can compare how each shape behaves under the same flow conditions in the same channel.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
Both clear culverts are produced by Science Lab Supplies in its own Saha, Ambala, India factory. The company sells them as their manufacturer, so the quotation and the goods come from the same place.
Can the culverts be quoted for a tender?
Yes. Share the tender quantity, delivery location and specification, and an item-wise quotation is prepared against the description above, with other channel models added if the tender lists them.
