The GUNT HM 162.51 Venturi Flume is a flow-measuring flume designed to determine discharge in experimental flumes. Venturi flumes feature a defined lateral contraction and sometimes a shaped bottom, creating a constriction that dams up the discharge and ensures subcritical flow upstream. The constriction accelerates the flow from subcritical to supercritical, with critical discharge occurring at the narrowest section, leading to a hydraulic jump in the expansion section.
