Here are some examples of how SonTek/YSI acoustic Doppler instruments can be used
to collect water velocity measurement data for sewage and water treatment applications.
Sewage and Water Treatment Applications
Instruments |
Examples |
- ADP - Acoustic Doppler Profiler
|
- Poverty Bay - Describes how a
bottom-tracking ADP on a small vessel was used in New Zealand to collect complex
circulation currents near a sewage outfall.
- Waste Water Study - Los
Angeles County Sanitation Districts is several ADPs to collect water
current profile data as part of a study to optimize the discharge of
treated waste water.
|
- ADV - Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter
|
- MAC3D - Describes how an ADV was
used by the USGS to measure water velocity profiles induced by air diffusers and mixers in
a test tank and in a reservoir.
- Settling Basins
- Describes how an ADV was used to evaluate the flow fields in the settling basins of a
water treatment facility.
|
- ADVOcean - Acoustic Doppler
Velocimeter Ocean Probe

|
|
- Monitoring Water Quality - Combining
the Argonaut-SL with a YSI 6820 Sonde multiprobe offers a solution to monitoring water quality.

|
- Indiana Stream Discharge -
Describes how USGS personnel used a FlowTracker to measure discharge in eight Indiana
streams.
- Tow Tank Test - Describes
how the FlowTracker Handheld ADV was tested at a USGS tow tank.
