For accurate reading of velocity and turbulence at a point close to the instrument within the Swansea University wave flume and other laboratory environments, purchase of velocity measurement systems with a smaller measurement head. This could be Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter or an alternative technology with the same accuracy. As these are laboratory instrum...

Tidal performance measurement requires a good understanding of the flow field through the water column. Stand-alone self-recording field instruments are required for both velocity and turbulence measurements. ADCPs will be supplied with seabed frames and moorings suitable for high flow rate environments.
