The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Eac
25、h member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the Internation
26、al Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standard
27、s adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject o
28、f patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 748 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 113, Hydrometry, Subcommittee SC 1, Velocity area methods. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 748:1997), which has been te
29、chnically revised. EN ISO 748:2007blank1Hydrometry Measurement of liquid flow in open channels using current-meters or floats 1 Scope This International Standard specifies methods for determining the velocity and cross-sectional area of water flowing in open channels without ice cover, and for compu
30、ting the discharge therefrom. It covers methods of employing current-meters or floats to measure the velocities. It should be noted that although, in some cases, these measurements are intended to determine the stage-discharge relation of a gauging station, this International Standard deals only wit
31、h single measurements of the discharge; the continuous recording of discharges over a period of time is covered in ISO 1100-1 and ISO 1100-2. NOTE The methods for determining the velocity and cross-sectional area of water flowing in open channels with ice cover are specified in ISO 9196. 2 Normative

35、se methods consists of determining velocity and cross-sectional area. A measuring site is chosen conforming to the specified requirements (see Clause 5); the width, depending on its magnitude, is measured either by means of steel tape or by some other surveying method, and the depth is measured at a
36、 number of points (known as verticals) across the width, sufficient to determine the shape and area of the cross-section (see Clause 6). EN ISO 748:20072 Velocity observations using current-meters are made at each vertical preferably at the same time as measurement of depth, especially in the case o
37、f unstable beds (see 7.1.5). Velocity observations can also be made using surface floats or velocity-rods (see 7.2). 4.2 The discharge is computed either arithmetically or graphically by summing the products of the velocity and corresponding area for a series of observations in a cross-section. If u
38、nit width discharge is required, it is generally computed from the individual observations at each measurement vertical. 5 Selection and demarcation of site 5.1 Selection of site The site selected should comply as far as possible with the following requirements. a) The channel at the measuring site
39、should be straight and of uniform cross-section and slope in order to minimize abnormal velocity distribution. When the length of the channel is restricted, it is recommended for current-meter measurements that the straight length upstream should be at least twice that downstream. b) Flow directions
40、 for all points on any vertical across the width should be parallel to one another and at right angles to the measurement section. c) The bed and margins of the channels should be stable and well defined at all stages of flow in order to facilitate accurate measurement of the cross-section and ensur
41、e uniformity of conditions during and between discharge measurements. d) The curves of the distribution of velocities should be regular in the vertical and horizontal planes of measurement. e) Conditions at the section and in its vicinity should also be such as to preclude changes taking place in th
42、e velocity distribution during the period of measurement. f) Sites displaying vortices, reverse flow or dead water should be avoided. g) The measurement section should be clearly visible across its width and unobstructed by trees, aquatic growth or other obstacles. h) Measurement of flow from bridge
43、s can be a convenient and sometimes safer way of sampling width, depth and velocity. When gauging from a bridge with divide piers, each section of the channel should be measured separately. Particular care should be taken in determining the velocity distribution when bridge apertures are surcharged
44、or obstructed. i) The depth of water at the section should be sufficient at all stages to provide for the effective immersion of the current-meter or float, whichever is to be used. j) If the site is to be established as a permanent station, it should be easily accessible at all times with all neces
45、sary measurement equipment. k) The section should be sited away from pumps, sluices and outfalls, if their operation during a measurement is likely to create unsteady flow conditions. l) Sites where there is converging or diverging flow should be avoided. m) In those instances where it is necessary
46、to make measurements in the vicinity of a bridge, it is preferable that the measuring site be upstream of the bridge. However, in certain cases and where accumulation of ice, logs or debris is liable to occur, it is acceptable that the measuring site be downstream of the bridge. EN ISO 748:20073n) T
47、he measurement of flow under ice cover is dealt with in ISO 9196. For streams subject to formation of ice cover, the requirements of measurement specified in this International Standard can be used during the free water season. o) It may, under certain conditions of river flow or level, prove necess
48、ary to carry out current-meter measurements on sections other than the original chosen location. This is quite acceptable if there are no substantial unmeasured losses or gains to the river in the intervening reach and so long as all flow measurements can be related to any stage value recorded at th
49、e principal reference section. 5.2 Demarcation of site 5.2.1 If the site is to be established as a permanent station or likely to be used frequently for future measurement, it should be provided with means for demarcation of the cross-section and for determination of stage. Where the site is used only once, or infrequently, and there are no means of determining stage values on site, care should be taken to ensure that the water level and/or flow do not change significantly during the measurement period. 5.2.2 The position of each cross-section, nor
