Water properties

The curvature of light rays by refraction is equal to $\gamma=-n{-1}dn/dz=n{-1}(dn/d\rho)(-d\rho/dz)$. For $-d\rho/\rho dz=1\%$ over a depth of 1 m,the curvature is $\gamma=1.75\: 10{-3} m{-1}$. The equation $z(x)$ of the ray propagating along $x$ is then $z=ax-\gamma x2 /2$.

Acquisition of 4 conductivity probes data on Arduino Uno board

We interrogate the Arduino card to recover the data on the serial port. The maximum acquisition frequency is about 20 Hz but is not fixed because it is linked to the release or not of the serial link.

A code change was made by the instrumentation department to perform a one-hour acquisition and retrieve the data from a text file with the date and time of the start of the acquisition displayed.

This system has its limits:

  • fragility of the probes: a probe has been inactive since the beginning of the operations
  • non-fixed acquisition frequency: no possibility to add batteries or SD cards on this turnkey system delivered
  • for the moment, there is no synchronization with the existing LabVIEW code, synchronization which would make it possible to carry out all the movements and acquisitions of the probes at the same time.

Vectrino Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter

This provides pointwise measurement of the three velocity components, with response time about 0.01 s. We have two instruments: One is downlooking, and the second one is side looking, which can be useful near a wall.

See documentation: Datasheet_Vectrino_Lab_01-2017.pdf

A profiler can be also borrowed from the teaching department: it provides profiles of the three velocity components over 5 cm, useful to study a boundary layer.
