Abstract

A major facility of this type (annular flume), known as 'The Carousel', has been developed at Hydraulics Research Limited. It is the largest of this type in the world and offers advantages over other systems in terms of its ability to model natural conditions. A large number of tests have been carried out in the carousel in order to calibrate its performance. These tests led to some recommendations for modifications to the Carousel and instrumentation which would enhance its range of application.
