R. A. Almeida, Z. de Souza, E. da C. Bortoni
Abstract:
This work shows the transonda that is a device destined to measure the flow in pipe lines under pressure and in natural or artificial channels. This instrument is being developed in the Hydromechanical Laboratory for Small Hydro Power Plants – LHPCH – of the Engineering Federal School of Itajubá – EFEI – in partnership with Markare Devices Electronics Co. This paper shows the transondas patented models, the results of researches of the preliminary version and the results of the tested prototype in the wind tunnel of the referred laboratory.
