Flow and measure how high the water was when it flowed over the top of the board.
Flow measurement devices list.
The most common method used by the usgs for measuring velocity is with a current meter.
The flow nozzle 5.
The pitot tube 3.
This device consists of a glass tube bent at the lower part to form a u tube.
The flow measurement devices can also be further classified based on their principle of operation.
Achieve precision measurement and process control by ensuring you have the right flow technology for your specific needs.
Likewise sonar flow measurement uses the same techniques and algorithms employed in underwater acoustics but applies them to flow measurement of oil and gas wells and flow lines.
In its simplest form the device.
Orifice plate or orifice meter 4.
The open end of the u tube is enlarged.
To measure flow velocity sonar flowmeters use two knowns.

Flow measuring devices can be primarily classified based on the type of flow measurement either mass flow measurement or volumetric flow measurement.
In this way they could easily calculate how much water was flowing in the duct.

A venturimeter is a device meant for measuring the quantity of a liquid flowing through a pipe.
This instrument is conveniently used as a household barometer.
