Probe for measuring groundwater velocity at the centimeter scale.
A novel method of measuring small-scale groundwater velocities in unconsolidated noncohesive media uses the travel time of a tracer pulse between an injection port and two detectors located on the surface of a cylindrical probe, called a point-velocity probe (PVP), as the basis for velocity estimation. The direction and magnitude of the water velocity vector were determined to within +/- 9% of ...
متن کاملAccuracy of Bubble Velocity Measurement with a Four-point Optical Fibre Probe
For the operation of high void fraction bubbly flows in bubble columns, insight in primary parameters such as bubble size, shape and velocity as well as gas volume fraction is essential. At high gas volume fractions the flow system becomes opaque, ruling out non-intrusive optical techniques. As an alternative optical fibre probes can be used, which have the advantage of low cost, simplicity of ...
متن کاملApplication of Soft Computing Methods in the Analysis of Velocity Field in Dividing Channel
The simplest water diversion method in irrigation systems is using intakes. Measuring the mean velocity is one of the essential hydraulic parameters in increasing the efficiency of the intake. In this study, the mean velocity was predicted for different width ratios of an intake using ANN-MLP neural network model. In order to do that, the flow field within a 90-degree intake was first simulated...
متن کاملField Measurement of Particle Settling Velocity
Many stormwater management practices depend on sedimentation as their primary removal mechanism, but the settling velocity distribution of particles in runoff from a specific watershed is rarely known. A simple and effective method to characterize settling velocity distribution is needed to improve the design of stormwater management practices. Elutriation devices have been used to characterize...
