On the strategy of current meter calibration / P. Engel.: En13-5/97-191E-PDF

"A single, continuous equation, which takes into account the linear and non-linear components of the Price meter rotor response, was used to examine two current meter calibration strategies. Results showed that the uncertainty of group calibrations is substantially greater than calibrations of individual meters. The difference has been attributed to rotor fabrication variances for velocities greater than 0.3 m/s and residual velocities in the towing tank at velocities less than 0.3 m/s"--Abstract.
