9、andards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International o

10、rganizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules giv

11、en in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least

12、75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. In exceptional circumstances, when a technical committee has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard (“state of the art”, for example), it may decide by a simple majority vote of its participating

13、 members to publish a Technical Report. A Technical Report is entirely informative in nature and does not have to be reviewed until the data it provides are considered to be no longer valid or useful. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject

15、stic Doppler profiler Method and application for measurement of flow in open channels 1 Scope This Technical Report deals with the use of boat-mounted acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs) for determining flow in open channels without ice cover. It describes a number of methods of deploying ADC

16、Ps to determine flow. Although, in some cases, these measurements are intended to determine the stage-discharge relationship of a gauging station, this Technical Report deals only with single determination of discharge. The term ADCP has been adopted as a generic term for a technology that is manufa

17、ctured by various companies worldwide. They are also called acoustic Doppler velocity profilers (ADVPs) or acoustic Doppler profilers (ADPs). ADCPs can be used to measure a variety of parameters, such as current or stream flow, water velocity fields, channel bathymetry and estimation of sediment con

18、centration from acoustic backscatter. This Technical Report is generic in form and contains no operational details specific to particular ADCP makes and models. Accordingly, to use this document effectively, it is essential that users are familiar with the terminology and functions of their own ADCP

NOTE 2 Different modes are suitable for different flow regimes, e.g. fast or slow, deep or shallow. 3.11 real-time mode data retrieval mode in which the ADCP relays information to the operating computer as it gathers it. NOTE The ADCP and computer are connected (physically or

30、wireless) throughout the deployment. 2 ISO 2012 All rights reserved ISO/TR 24578:2012(E) 3.12 self-contained mode autonomous mode data retrieval mode in which the ADCP stores the information it gathers within its own memory and then downloaded to a computer after deployment. NOTE This method is gene

31、rally not used by majority of ADCP practitioners nor recommended by the majority of hydrometric practitioners. 3.13 transect pass one sweep across the watercourse during an ADCP deployment NOTE 1 In the self-contained mode, a deployment can consist of any number of transects. NOTE 2 In the real-time

32、 mode, a deployment consists of one transect. 4 Principles of operation 4.1 General The Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) is a device for measuring current velocity and direction, throughout the water column, in an efficient and non-intrusive manner. It can produce an instantaneous velocity p

33、rofile down through the water column while disturbing only the top few decimetres. ADCPs nominally work using the Doppler principle (see 4.2). An ADCP is usually a cylinder with a transducer head on the end (see Figure 1). The transducer head is a ring of three or four acoustic transducers with thei

34、r faces angled to the horizontal and at specified angles to each other. Key 1 forward 2 port 3 starboard 4 aft Figure 1 Sketch illustrating typical ADCP with four sensors ISO 2012 All rights reserved 3 ISO/TR 24578:2012(E) The instrument was originally developed for use in the study of ocean current

35、s tracking them and producing velocity profiles and other oceanographic work. It has since been developed for use in estuaries and rivers. An ADCP can be mounted on a boat or a flotation collar or raft and propelled across a river (see Figure 2). The route taken does not need to be straight or perpe

36、ndicular to the bank. The instrument collects measurements of velocity, depth and position as it goes. The ADCP can also be used to take measurements in fixed positions across the measurement cross section. These fixed positions are similar to verticals in conventional current meter gauging (see ISO

37、 748). This is referred to as the “section-by-section method” (see 5.6). 3 2 4 1 5 Key 1 start 2 path of boat 3 path of boat on river bottom 4 flow velocity vectors 5 finish Figure 2 Sketch illustrating moving-boat ADCP deployment principles 4.2 Doppler principle applied to moving objects The ADCP u

38、ses ultrasound to measure water velocity using a principle of physics discovered by Christian Doppler. The reflection of sound-waves from a moving particle causes an apparent change in frequency to the reflected sound wave. The difference in frequency between the transmitted and reflected sound wave

39、 is known as the Doppler shift. 4 ISO 2012 All rights reserved ISO/TR 24578:2012(E) It should be noted that only components of velocity parallel to the direction of the sound wave produce a Doppler shift. Thus, particles moving at right angles to the direction of the sound waves (i.e. with no veloci

40、ty components in the direction of the sound wave) will not produce a Doppler shift. Figure 3 Reflection of sound-waves by a moving particle results in an apparent change in the frequency of those sound waves Dopplers principle relates the change in frequency to the relative velocities of the source

41、(reflector) and the observer. In the case of most ADCPs, the transmitted sound is reflected off particulates or air bubbles in the water column and reflected back to the transducer. It is assumed that the particulates move at the same velocity as the water and from this the frequency shift can be tr

42、anslated to a velocity magnitude and direction. It should be noted, however, that excessive air bubbles can cause distortion in, or loss of, the returned signal. Furthermore, air bubbles naturally rise and therefore are likely not to be travelling in a representative magnitude and direction. 4.2.1 S

43、peed of sound in water The calculated velocity is directly related to the speed of sound in the water. The speed of sound varies significantly with changes in pressure, water temperature, salinity and sediment concentration, but is most sensitive to changes water temperature. Most manufacturers of A

44、DCP systems measure water temperature near the transducer faces and apply correction factors to allow for temperature related differences in the speed of sound. ADCPs that do not have temperature compensation facilities should be avoided. If the instrument is to be used in waters of varying salinity

45、, the software used to collect data should have the facility to correct for salinity. Figure 4 Sound speed as a function of temperature at different salinity levels (left panel) and salinity at different temperature levels (right panel) ISO 2012 All rights reserved 5 ISO/TR 24578:2012(E) Figure 4 in

46、dicates the effect of temperature and salinity on the speed of sound. As a general rule, a temperature change of 5 C results in a sound speed change of 1 %, a salinity change of 12 ppt (parts per thousand) results in a change in sound speed of 1 %; freshwater is 0 ppt and seawater is in the region o

47、f 30 to 35 ppt), and the full range of typical temperature and salinity levels (2 to 40 C and 0 to 40 ppt) gives a sound speed range of 1 400 to 1 570 m/s (total change of 11 %). 4.3 Acoustic Doppler operating techniques 4.3.1 General All ADCPs fit into one of three general categories, based upon th

48、e method by which the Doppler measurements are made: pulse incoherent (including narrowband); pulse-to-pulse coherent; spread spectrum or broadband. Reference should be made to the instrument manual to determine the type of instrument being used. 4.3.2 Pulse incoherent An incoherent Doppler transmit

49、s a single, relatively long, pulse of sound and measures the Doppler shift, which is used to calculate the velocity of the particles along the path of the acoustic beam. The velocity measurements made using incoherent processing are very robust over a large velocity range, although they have a relatively high short-term (single ping) uncertainty. To reduce the uncertainty, multiple pulses are transmitted over a short time period (typically 9 to 20 per second), these are then averaged before reporting a velocity
