Water Laboratory FHNW

    In the FHNW Water Laboratory, we support you with analyses using water or sprays to determine flow, pressure or velocity distributions as well as droplet sizes, distributions and velocities.

    Our Offer

    The broad range of infrastructure makes our water laboratory very interesting for a wide variety of tasks. We support you in your research project or as part of a service for various tasks: from testing the highest-precision special pump to researching new thermoelectric materials, almost anything is possible. Depending on the requirements, various measuring and operating equipment is available.

    By the way: Our mobile test benches are fully instrumented. And our spacious laboratory with a raised floor is also ideally suited for larger projects.
