Using of ADV method for Measuring of flow velocity components in the stream

Year, pages: 2018, 126 - 132

In this article the results of velocity profile measurements in a stream by using the ADV method (Acoustic Doppler Velocimetry) are presented. The measurements are carried out in the Malina stream (Záhorie). The velocity profile was measured with using the three-dimensional ultrasound probe of ADV device FlowTracker (SonTek/YSI). The obstacle was installed into the stream and by this way the velocity profile was modified. First, the undisturbed velocity profile was measured and subsequently there was measured the modification of this velocity profile caused by the obstacle installation. The FlowTracker device run in so-called „General mode operation“, in which all three velocity vectors in the measured point are recorded. The content of this article is evaluation of results from pilot application of the device for monitoring of point velocity components (vx, vy, vz) changes in field conditions.
