Abstract

A current-measurement experiment using the method of space-time acoustic scintillation is described. The scintillation flowmeter measures the average current along the depth of the acoustic path, in real time. Three such paths are used at nominal depths of 5 m, 6.5 m, and 9 m to obtain time series of the flow profile from which transport may be inferred. The scintillation method, instruments, and results are discussed. Comparison of current measurements from a launch show the scintillation data to be fully consistent, although difficulties in obtaining the launch data results in their being somewhat scattered.<>

在弗雷泽河口使用多深度闪烁流量计的经验
介绍了利用时空声闪烁法测量电流的实验。闪烁流量计可以实时测量沿声波路径深度的平均电流。在5米、6.5米和9米的标称深度处使用了三条这样的路径来获得流动剖面的时间序列,由此可以推断出输送情况。讨论了闪烁的方法、仪器和结果。与一次发射的当前测量结果比较表明,闪烁数据是完全一致的,尽管由于难以获得发射数据而导致它们有些分散。
