1、 Equipment composition

2、 Equipment principle

To measure the speed of a target, the radar must emit radar waves and aim the beam at the moving or departing target. When the radar beam contacts the target, a portion of the beam energy will return to the radar antenna. The returned beam contains frequency shift information generated when the target moves, and the value of the frequency shift is proportional to the speed of the target's motion. This is the so-called Doppler effect. Radar can obtain the corresponding speed of a target by measuring changes in frequency.

3、 Application scope

Radar flowmeterNot affected by temperature, humidity, rainfall, water depth, turbid water, and floating debris on the water surface, it is very suitable for flow testing under high water and special water conditions；At the same time, the sensor does not come into contact with water flow and can be suspended for installation. It can be placed at a high place in the wild for better anti-theft and anti damage protection. It can be widely used in fields such as wild rivers, channels, and drainage pipelines, and is suitable for various water qualities.

4、 Equipment installation

The horizontal beamwidth of the radar isAt 5.5 °, the farther the distance between the target and the antenna, the larger the elliptical detection area formed by the beam. The following example shows an elliptical beam illumination area with a diameter of approximately 2 feet (61 centimeters). As shown in the figure, when the radar is installed at a height of about 10 feet (3 meters) above the water surface, the radar beam forms an elliptical beam area with a diameter of about 2 feet (61 centimeters) on the water surface. When measuring water surface velocity, please remember this correspondence when considering the width of the river.
