An azimuth current meter test fixture / by S.D. Baird. T. Nugent, H. Savile.: En36-539/76-1983E-PDF

"An azimuthal inclinated adjustable current meter test frame has been designed and manufactured for the testing of various current sensing assemblies. The frame provides for azimuthal rotation of the current meter through a full 360° of current attack and may also be inclined through 30° of the flow direction. The frame therefore allows current meters to be tested for horizontal response to varying attack angle flows and further allows for the simulation of instrument drag characteristics by being adjustable in the inclinated axis"--Abstract.
