| 内容記述 | A twin propeller-vane anemometer developed at the University of British Columbia was successfully used for unattended measurement of atmospheric turbulence over extended periods of time during moderate to high winds in the presence of sea spray. In this paper, a new design in twin propeller-vane anemometers is introduced. The instrument consists of two Gill anemometers mounted on a vane. The propeller shafts, one pointing up and the other pointing down, make an angle of 45 deg with the horizontal (hence, the name K-Gill). In addition to the desirable characteristics of the earlier design the K-Gill has symmetry, so that updraft and downdraft winds are measured with equal sensitivity. An algorithm for obtaining the vertical and downstream horizontal components of the wind velocity is described. Various sources of error and their magnitudes are discussed. |
