Experimental Hydraulics Methods, Instrumentation, Data Processing and Management Volume II: Instrumentation and Measurement Techniques IAHR Monograph Serieseditors PeterA.Davies Robert Ettema DepartmentofCivilEngineering, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, TheUniversityofDundee, Colorado State University, Dundee, Fort Collins, UnitedKingdom USA The International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR),founded in1935, isa worldwideindependent organisationofengineers and water specialists working in fields related to hydraulics and its practical application. Activities range from river and maritime hydraulics to water resources development andeco-hydraulics,throughtoiceengineering,hydroinformaticsandcontinuingedu- cationandtraining.IAHRstimulatesandpromotesbothresearchanditsapplication, and,bydoingso,strivestocontributetosustainabledevelopment,theoptimisationof worldwaterresourcesmanagementandindustrialflowprocesses.IAHRaccomplishes itsgoalsbyawidevarietyofmemberactivitiesincluding:theestablishmentofworking groups,congresses,specialtyconferences,workshops,shortcourses;thecommission- ing and publication of journals, monographs and edited conference proceedings; involvement in international programmes such as UNESCO, WMO, IDNDR, GWP, ICSU,TheWorldWaterForum;andbyco-operationwithotherwater-related(inter) nationalorganisations.www.iahr.org Experimental Hydraulics Methods, Instrumentation, Data Processing and Management Volume II: Instrumentation and Measurement Techniques Editors Jochen Aberle Leichtweiß-InstituteforHydraulicEngineeringandWaterResources,TechnischeUniversität Braunschweig,Braunschweig,Germany NorwegianUniversityofScienceandTechnology,Trondheim,Norway Colin D.

IAHR is particularly well-served in this regard by its flagship journals and by the extensive and wide body of substantive historicalandreflectivebooksthathavebeenpublishedthroughitsauspicesoverthe years.TheIAHRBookSeriesisaninitiativeofIAHR,inpartnershipwithCRCPress/ Balkema–Taylor&FrancisGroup,aimedatpresentingthestate-of-the-artinthemes relatingtoallareasofhydro-environmentengineeringandresearch. TheBookSerieswillassistresearchersandprofessionalsbyadvancingandtransfer- ringcontemporaryknowledgeneededforresearch,educationandengineeringpractice. The series includes Design Manuals and Monographs. The Design Manuals, usually preparedbymultipleauthors,guidetheapplicationoftheoryandresearchfindingsto engineering practice; and, the Monographs give state-of-the-art coverage of various significanttopicsinwaterengineering. The first and highly successful IAHR book was “Turbulence Models and their ApplicationinHydraulics’’byW.Rodi,publishedin1984byBalkema.“Turbulence inOpenChannelFlows’’byI.NezuandH.Nakagawa,alsopublishedbyBalkema(in 1993),hadanimportantimpactonthefieldand,duringtheperiod2000–2010,further authoritative texts (published directly by IAHR) included Fluvial Hydraulics by S.
