 Fixstr1_2709a: The goal was to examine the flushing time of the inlet box to see how it behaves once the PVC tubes were installed. One conductivity probe (C1T1) was mounted at the centerline just before the flow straightener (metallic honeycomb). Started with 6 l/s and waited for 5 min to see how inlet box, UVP and pump behaved. The UVP and siphon pump were turned on to fix the suspected pulse that the pump imparted to the UVP. This did not resolve the SNR issue. The inlet box took a long time to reach a steady conductivity value. It was suggested to start with a higher flow rate and then reduce the flow rate to 6 l/s. The ADV and UVP data were still noisy. No siphon sampling was done.
 
-fixstr1_2709b: It was suggested to install an array of three conductivity probes in a cross-section just before the honeycomb in the inlet box. Only one additional probe was available. As such, two conductivity probes were mounted in the cross section just before the flow straightener (metallic honeycomb): one at the centerline (C1T1 green) and one 5 cm?? from the right wall (C1T1 black), looking downstream. The traverse is able to move vertically in every cross-section position and the previously outstanding issues have been resolved.

-Water was initially pumped with a flow rate of 15.28 l/s (55 m3/h). This was the highest achievable flow rate. The water was pumped at this rate for 2 minutes and then reduced to 6 l/s. This seems to achieve the desired effect of reaching a steady conductivity value in a short amount of time. The UVP was set over 10 minutes, but still showed noisy data. No siphon sampling was conducted.
