automated equipment for measuring small river flow and method for measuring flow with dimensional analysis of the river channel

摘要

the equipment (e) is formed by an extendable tube (1) to which is attached a propeller (2), supported by a bearing (3), by means of a connector sleeve (4), which contains a rev counter (5) which measures the speed, in addition to an ultrasonic sensor (6) for measuring the depth, where the speed is measured. the method consists of calculating the flow of the river in real time by means of an algorithm, using the speed and the cross-section measured and transmitted through wireless technology installed in the equipment's waterproof acrylic box (7) (e).
