Response characteristics of a new bidirectional vane

  • 1. Department of Energy and Environment Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, New York 11973

Description

The design and construction of a bivane to measure horizontal and elevation angle fluctuations in the atmosphere are presented. Wind tunnel tests indicated a reasonably high-frequency response. Field comparisons with a commercially available instrument gave good results. A unique feature in the design of this bivane is its ruggedness in combination with good frequency response
