AIM
Aim of the experiment is by using a hydraulic bench, measuring the volumetric flow rate of the fluid.
The way to calculating the voluetric flow rate is measuring the time that the fluid increses the choosen
vloume level from a known constant volume level by stop-watch. So by using these measurements the
experiment will be done by every student fo three times to calculate the average volume flow rate and
determining the error and the standart deviation.

DESCRIPTION
As mentioned in the aim all students will measure the time that determined volume of the fluid for
three times and calculate the “Volumetric Flow Rate”, “Standart Deviation”, “Deviation”, “Average
Filling Rate” and “Total Data Points” by given formulas.

FORMULAS
Volumetric Flow Rate = Q = V/t = [L/S]

Relative Uncearnity = ΔQ/Q = 2G/Q = ((ΔV/V)2+(Δt/t)2)1/2

ΔQ = (Qmax – Qmin)/V

Number of Points = N = ∑Nj=1 Nj

Mean Value = Q = (1/N) ∑Ni=1Qi

Deviation = Di = Qi -Q

Standart Deviation = G = [(1/N) ∑Ni=1Di]1/2

CONCLUSION
We assessed the flow rate of a hydraulic bench by timing a 10L liquid release, and then we were able
to check for the uncertainty of the measured time by determining the standard deviation curve after
recording 75 trials and calculating the mean discharge time.

We thought there were no systematic "bias" mistakes, thus we used B=0 in our calculations and
assumed that the majority of the significant errors were random, such as human reaction errors and
digit rounding.
