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 $z=ax-\gamma x2 /2$.

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.
