A Study of the Fundamental Principles of Current Meters

By Joseph Ridgeway Gunn

"A Study of the Fundamental Principles of Current Meters," by Joseph Ridgeway Gunn, presents a detailed examination of the theory and operation of current meters, essential tools in hydraulic engineering and hydrometry. Published in 1922, this work provides insights into the design and calibration of these instruments, which are used to measure the velocity of water flow. Gunn delves into the physical principles governing the behavior of current meters, offering a rigorous analysis relevant to both students and practicing engineers.

The book is valuable for its historical perspective on measurement techniques and its thorough treatment of a fundamental engineering tool. It will appeal to those interested in the history of engineering, fluid mechanics, and the development of precision measurement devices.
