Burlington, Ont. : Environmental Hydraulics Section, Hydraulics Division, National Water Research Institute, 1983. vi, 16, [12] p. : ill. NWRI ; 83-15 Cover title. "September, 1983". "Study 83-306". Digitized edition from print [produced by Environment and Climate Change Canada]. Includes bibliographical references. "Theoretical analysis and experimental data are used to develop mathematical model of the response of the Price meter rotor to a flow with a transverse velocity gradient. Application of the model showed that the Price meter over-registers when velocity gradients are positive and under-registers when such gradients are negative. In some cases, the error in a velocity measurement can be of the order of several percent. Some recommendations to reduce the effect of velocity gradients are made"--Summary, p. i.
