| | 440 | rotstr1_2010a: The total experiment time was 36 mins. Inflow rate started with 10.83 L/s and then was decreased to 5.69 L/s until it reached a constant level. PIV measurements were conducted and a Gopro camera captured movie from the top. Density excess and temperature were 20.7 kg/m^3^ and 22.7°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. |
