Single-velocity Method in Measuring Discharge

Download or read book Single-velocity Method in Measuring Discharge written by P. W. Strilaeff and published by Information Canada. This book was released on 1973 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 1968 an analysis was made of discharge measurement records for a number of gauging stations located in Manitoba and Northwest Territories. The purpose of the analysis was to discover the relationship between discharge measurements made on the basis of single velocity observations in the cross section, and discharge measurements made using traditional techniques. The relationship appeared to be very promising and the results were documented in the report "Preliminary Investigation into Relationship between Discharge Computed Using Single Velocity in a Cross-Section and Discharge Measured Using Standard Techniques," dated September 19, 1968. At the International Hydrological Decade Symposium on Hydrometry at Koblenz, Germany in September 1970, Mr. P.W. Strilaeff covered this subject in his paper entitled "Measurement of Discharge under Ice Cover." This paper was subsequently published as Technical Bulletin No. 29 by Inland Waters Branch; Department of Energy, Mines and Resources; Ottawa, Canada. This summary report is based on a more intensive and exhaustive analysis of the relationship by W. Bilozor, and suggests procedures to be followed when applying the single-velocity method in discharge measurement work"--Summary, p. vii.
