+Density of the previous siphon samples were measured and recorded. One experiment was conducted in which the tank was rotated with a rate of 0.0052 rad/s (0.05 rpm) in the clockwise direction, which corresponds to a Rossby number of -16.

 Experiment name: rotstr1_1710a. File names: rotstr1_1710a.
+ 
+rotstr1_1710a: The total experiment time was 36 mins. Inflow rate started with 10.61 L/s and then was decreased to 5.83 L/s until it reached a constant level. PIV measurements were conducted. Density excess and temperature were 20.1 kg/m^3^ and 22.3°C, respectively. ADV data were collected at the straight section (Position X1 - 75% down straight section, 56 cm upstream from the end of the straight section) from 15 to 25 min after the flow rate became constant. 7 sets of siphon samples were collected at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35 minutes after the start of the experiment, with duration of 1 minute. The cross stream UVP collected data from 5 to 15 minutes, and the down-stream UVP collected data from 25 to 35 minutes.
+
+When measuring the density of the siphon samples for this experiment it was revealed that the ambient was too salty so no experiments commenced and the tank was drained.
+
 
 The tank was drained, washed and cleaned. Then it was filled and rotated with 0.041 rad/s (0.4 rpm) corresponding to Rossby number of +2. Wiki notes were prepared and the website was updated. All files on the LEGI network were also updated.
