Abstract: The design and calibration of three simple flumes for flow measurements in open channels are discussed. The flumes are designed based on principles of critical flow in open channels. Critical flow is created through the ...

Abstract: A procedure is introduced to estimate solar radiation and subsequently reference crop evapotranspiration using minimum climatological data. The paper describes a modification to an original equation that uses maximum and ...

Abstract: Laboratory experiments were conducted to evaluate the hydraulic characteristics of a simple portable flume. The flume consists of a pipe installed axially inside a trapezoidal channel with side slopes of 1/1. The ratio of ...

Abstract: There are various types of water measurement devices available. The type of flume used in a particular application depends on site-specific factors or limitations and the need for precision and cost. In measuring water in ...
