JBA Trust hydraulic flume showing how engineered structures affect flow in rivers (full video)

The mini flume shows the flow of water in a simple channel, driven by a system of recirculating pumps. It shows scale models of typical engineered structures such as weirs, bridges, culverts and debris screens. The mini flume is particularly useful in helping to understand some of the causes of flooding and how good design and maintenance of rivers and drainage channels can help to manage flood risk.
