LABORATORY AND FIELD-WORK IN HYDRAULICS.
The equipment for this work comprises a steel tank for weir experiments
with adjustable bronze notches; a hook gauge for accurate
measurement of surface levels; a cast-iron stand pipe for experiments
on efflux with adjustable bronze orifices; a series of pipes with bends,
elbows, and tees for measuring pipe friction; and the proper manometers
and gauges for reading pressures. For the field-work the outfit
of field instruments has been enlarged by a current meter of modern
construction and a set of hollow copper ball floats for direct stream
velocity measurements.
