ANNEXES
A (informative) Flow measurement with small weir tanks
B (informative) Guide to the design and installation of a
flow straightener
Specifies the installation, head measurement and assessment of the accuracy of discharge formulae for 2 types of weir - rectangular thin-plate and triangular notch thin-plate weirs. Also covers the assessment of the accuracy of discharge measurement.
