Background6.1 The distribution of velocity and sediment concentrationin a sampling

16、 vertical is very complex. The velocity of the flowwill generally decrease with depth while the suspended-sediment concentration will normally increase with depth in avertical. For a sediment sampler to collect a representativevolume, the water-sediment mixture must enter the nozzlewithout undergoin

17、g a change in direction or speed. Ideally, thewater must enter the nozzle at the same velocity as theapproaching flow. When the velocity is unchanged uponentering the nozzle, the condition is termed isokinetic. Depth-and point-integrating samplers with rigid sample containerssample isokinetically on

18、ly if their nozzles point directly intothe flow and the samplers are used within certain ranges ofdepths. Depth-integrating samplers also operate isokineticallyonly when their vertical transit rate is within a given range.6.2 If the velocity of the water-sediment mixture enteringthe nozzle exceeds t

19、hat of the approach velocity, the samplesediment concentration is smaller than the concentration of theapproaching flow. Decreasing the velocity in the nozzle com-pared to the approach velocity will cause the sample sedimentconcentration to be greater than that of the approaching flow.The magnitude

20、of the difference between nozzle and approachvelocity is related to the degree of increase or decrease inconcentration. The concentration shift is also related to thesizes of the grains in suspension. The larger the grain size, thelarger the potential shift in concentrations will be.6.3 The sampler

21、will not operate properly if the transit rateis too fast and/or sampling depth is too great. See GuideD 4411 for more details on proper use of depth integratingsuspended sediment samplers.6.4 Two factors control the maximum transit rate for asampler: approach angle and the compression rate.6.4.1 At

22、a given sample vertical, as the transit rate increases,the approach angle increases. If the transit-rate exceeds 0.4times the mean flow velocity in the vertical, the intake velocityundergoes a significant acceleration due to changes in flowdirection. The maximum vertical transit rate for a depth-int

23、egrating sampler or point-integrating sampler used for depthintegrating, should not exceed 0.4 times the mean streamvelocity of the section.6.4.2 The compression rate, which is related to the compres-sion limit, may restrict the vertical transit rate to less than 0.4times the mean stream velocity. A

24、s the sampler is loweredthrough the water, the increasing water pressure compressesthe air in the sampler container. If the sampler is loweredslowly, the volume of the incoming water exceeds the volumelost, the displaced air exits through the samplers exhaust vent.If the sampler is lowered rapidly,

25、the volume of the incomingwater is less than the volume lost to compression. Pressureinside the sampler container is less than the hydrostaticpressure outside the sampler. The self regulating properties ofthe sampler loose control. The intake velocity increases abovethe stream velocity. In severe ca

26、ses, water enters the samplerthrough the air-exhaust vent. If the sampler is raised toorapidly, the air inside the bottle expands and, if not relieved byventing, will not escape fast enough through the air-exhaustvent. The pressure unbalance causes the intake velocity to beless than the approach vel

27、ocity. The compression-rate limit is afunction of the diameter of the nozzle, volume of the samplecontainer, and altitude. For large bottles with small nozzles itcan limit the vertical transit rate to less than 3 % of the meanstream velocity. Table 1 lists the maximum transit-rates ratiosfor commonl

28、y used combinations of sampler nozzle andcontainer sizes.6.5 Edwards and Glysson3discuss the proper use of thesamplers and transit-rate ratios for some of the more commoncombinations used by the US Geological Survey (USGS).Because of difficulties in maintaining a slow transit rate, the3Edwards, T.K.
