Water Velocity Measurements in Open Channels Using Volumetric Current Meter (VCM)
An innovative Volumetric Current Meter (VCM) was designed in order to allow quick velocity measurements in open channels. At first, the coefficient of velocity (Cv) of the device was determined through calibration under different water velocities in the laboratory. The measurement performance was verified by measurements performed in similar flows in irrigation channels using an ordinary curren...
متن کاملLoading Protocols for European Regions of Low to Moderate Seismicity
Existing loading protocols for quasi-static cyclic testing of structures are based on recordings from regions of high seismicity. For regions of low to moderate seismicity they overestimate imposed cumulative damage demands. Since structural capacities are a function of demand, existing loading protocols applied to specimens that are representative of structures in low to moderate seismicity re...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Particle Separation in the Fluid Flow in a Microchannel Including Spiral and Acoustic Regions
Particulate separation has many applications in medicine, biology and industry. In this research, the separation of polystyrene particles with a diameter of 10, 20 and 30 μm in the fluid flow of a microchannel is investigated. The microchannel consists of a spiral region and a straight region under the influence of acoustic waves. In the spiral region, the particles under hydrodynamic effects u...
متن کاملMeasuring Low Magnetic Field in Electromagnetic Flow Meter
Space distribution of low magnetic field amounting to 1 mT can be measured in detail using a commercial 3D probe with a modified control circuit. The probe was calibrated carefully using a known field from Helmholtz coils. The 3D positioning system enables the measurement of the field distribution. The apparatus was used for measuring the magnetic field of the electromagnetic flow meter. Additi...
متن کاملComparison of Turbine Discharge Measured by Current Meters and Acoustic Scintillation Flow Meter at Laforge-2 Power Plant
Performance tests were conducted at Unit 22 at Hydro-Québec’s Laforge-2 plant between June 11 and 15, 1997. These tests included measurements of the discharge through the turbine using current meters. Simultaneous measurements were also taken in one bay of the intake with an Acoustic Scintillation Flow Meter (ASFM). The ASFM is a new instrument which offers unique advantages for measuring intak...
