On the hydraulic efficiency of the WSC basket bedload sampler / by Peter Engel.: En13-5/86-105E-PDF

"Analytical considerations and experimental tests were used to examine the hydraulic efficiency of the HSC Basket Type Sampler. It was observed that the hydraulic efficiency was dependent only on the volume of sediment in the sampler. The effects of loss of hydraulic efficiency on the bed load sampler were found to be more significant at higher transport rates, It was also found that if the sampling time, for a given flow condition is properly chosen, then the NSC Sampler is a suitable instrument for measurement of coarse bedload"--Summary, p. i.
