Comparison of particle size measurements made with a water elutriation apparatus and a Malvern particle size analyzer / Y.L. Lau and B.G. Krishnappan.: En13-5/94-82E-PDF

"The performance of a simple water elutriation apparatus which has been used for monitoring sediment particle size in rivers has been compared with measurements made using a Malvern Particle Size Analyzer. Experiments were carried out by deploying both instruments in a 5 m diameter annular flume in which flows carrying sediment in suspension were generated. The tests were carried out using natural river water and sediment. Results obtained reveal distinct differences between in situ floc sizes and their effective sizes for settling"--Abstract, page 1.
