Abstract
Student’s perception and visualization of the hydraulic dimensioning for analysis of the characteristic length in pipes is not always performed in a clear and effective way. Experimental activities aim at physical contact, the practical use of the concepts which are approached in classroom. From this perspective, the experimental activities carried out aim to overcome these difficulties in theoretical disciplines, considering that the contribution of these circuits is very enriching for the course content and since the students are stimulated to develop experimental analysis in the solution of the proposed practical problem. To achieve this goal, a workbench was built with two hydraulic circuits (PVC and Galvanized Iron), being recycled most part of the material used. Furthermore, through a partnership with companies, a second (high pressure) workbench was built which enabled the development of studies and mapping of didactic activities. The experiments were designed to be very understandable and have a good area of tabular interaction, in order to give a better understanding and allow comparative analysis between the same circuits of different materials submitted to the same conditions. It is also possible to explore the most varied functions of the valves in a high pressure experiment.
