Abstract
A 2 1/2-m-high salt-stratified tank has been developed to measure the dynamic response functions of conductivity probes. By using stirring grids to sharpen a two-layer interface, it has been possible to obtain the response functions over the wavenumber range of 0.5 to 300 cycles/m. Test probes, which are mounted on the end of a vertically oriented ram, have been fired through the interface at speeds from 5 mm/s to 3.1 m/s.
