JGO: The solution to the skin-resistance problem is DrySense. The DrySense velocity sensor technology uses a proprietary swaging process that eliminates all air gaps between the heated velocity sensor and the tubular probe sheath eliminating the need for any potting compounds. ...
Abstract. We report on fall speed measurements of raindrops in light-to-heavy rain events from two climatically different regimes (Greeley, Colorado, and Huntsville, Alabama) using the high-resolution (50 µm) Meteorological Particle Spectrometer (MPS) and a third-generation (170 µm resolution) 2-D video disdrometer (2DVD). To mitigate wind effects, especially for the small drops, both ...
The energy dissipation is larger than 75% of the impingement jet energy. Instantaneous velocities and air entrainment were obtained with the use of an Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter and optical fibre probe, respectively. Mean velocity field and turbulence kinetic energy profiles were determined. ...
In order to warrant the accuracy of soil density and moisture data from measurements by means of the gamma and neutron radiation attenuation methods several influencing factors have to be taken into account, for example, the soil hydrogen content, the soil inhomogeneity, the resolution characteristics of the measuring device and the probe travel velocity. Some ...
