SIGHT TRIGGER

This is an inclinometer. It is used to


measure the angle from one point
of the river to another point. In
order to do so the length in
between each point of the river
WEIGHT must be measured. A pole is
inserted at each end of the
measurement, both poles being the
TRIGGER same length. The inclinometer is
placed at on end of the
measurement and aimed at the
other pole. The inclinometer must
be set to 0 degrees, then the trigger
is held and then when it stops
moving the trigger must be
released and the then you are
given the angle
HEIGHT
SCALE
This is a Flow meter. A Flow meter is used to
measure the velocity of the river. To measure
this the impellor must be adjusted on the
height shaft The depth of the river must be
calculated and then the propeller must be
place at either 60% up from the bed of the
river or 40% down from the surface of the
IMPELLOR
river. The flowmeter must be facing the
SHAFT current and must be held upright, we then
timed how long the propeller and how long it
took to reach the other end of the threaded
pole then to get the velocity we had to use
the formula (y)=(0.277)+(3.2805/x) x 100
Y = velocity x= time reading of impellor
