Fig. 1 – Normalized resolution (0.2 mm @ 50 mm/h) as a function of the rainfall rate
Fig. 2 – Normalized resolution (0.5 mm @ 50 mm/h) as a function of the rainfall rate
To correct the measurement depending on the rainfall rate, it is necessary to log, in
addition to the number of pulses, also the instants at which the pulses occur.
Example of measurement correction:
Let’s assume that a rain gauge with nominal resolution R
N
= 0.209 mm @ 50 mm/h
has generated 25 pulses at the frequency of 1 pulse every 50 seconds.
The rainfall rate can be estimated considering the nominal resolution R
N
and the inter-
val between two successive pulses: I = 0.209 x 3600 / 50 ≈ 15 mm/h.
From the linear equation in fig. 1 we obtain the normalized corrected resolution: R
Cn
=
0.196 mm.
The corrected resolution of the rain gauge is: R
C
= R
Cn
x R
N
/ 0.2 = 0.205 mm.
The amount of rain detected is 25 x 0.205 = 5.125 mm.
