    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Specifies guidelines on the principles of operation and the selection and use of Doppler-based and echo correlation velocity meters for continuous-flow gauging.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This International Standard provides guidelines on the principles of operation and the selection and use of Doppler-based and echo correlation velocity meters for continuous-flow gauging.

    This International Standard is applicable to channel flow determination in open channels and partially filled pipes using one or more meters located at fixed points in the cross-section.

    NOTE A limitation of the techniques is that measurement is made of the velocity of particles, other reflectors or disturbances.
