Effect of winter sounding weight assemblies on the performance of the Price current meter / by Peter Engel.: En13-5/90-100E-PDF
"Calibrations of the Price current meter with three different types of sounding weight suspensions were conducted. The meter suspensions are used for the measurement of flows in rivers with a solid ice cover. The effect of the suspensions on the meter response was identified and found to be strongly dependent on the flow velocity. The test results indicate that mathematical expressions could be developed to define the effect of the suspension assemblies. Once such expressions have been defined for each suspension type, general calibration equations can be developed"--Summary.
