"This study is a joint initiative of water Survey of Canada and the Hydraulics Division of the National Water Research Institute. Its purpose is to develop a plastic rotor for the Price meter with the best possible low speed performance. Preliminary designs have been obtained based on theoretical considerations and preliminary towing tank tests. Indications are that threshold velocities of less than 2cm/s can be obtained. Extensive tests were conducted to evaluate the consistency in the performance of the new rotor designs over a wider range of conditions. Results indicate that a plastic rotor with improved response characteristics has been obtained"--Summary, p. i.
