Has anyone bought "Water circuit flow meters" it is a component to use exemplyfying Electrical circuits. Has anyone used these these water circuits at their schools if so who is the supplier?

HI,
I have never heard of those types of circuts but would ask my physics teacher.

Hi!!

I don't know if this is what you are talking about?? We have an Electric circuit simulator which uses water to demonstrate electricity. It is used once a year by maybe one or two teachers. They seem to like it as it is a simple visual way of "seeing" electricty. The water is the flow of electrons and it can demonstrate a voltmeter and an ammeter.
I have no idea where it was purchased from but it is a Jupiter Scientific Services product. The address on the instruction sheet is 9 Cormorant Place Dingley Victoria.

I hope this helps!!

Try Haines, they carry an Electric Circuit Simulator. Our demo model gets used occasionally if the teacher can figure out how it works. Make sure you make a backup copy of the instructions.
