Today you will find weather stations ranging from simple stand-alone temperature, humidity, and rain sensors to high-tech Internet-enabled multi-sensor suites. In this article, the Instrument Choice Scientists review weather stations that provide users hyperlocal weather data that’s accessible anywhere, at any time via Internet connectivity.
Calculating average flow rates through ducts, pipes, hoods and stacks is simple. The cross-sectional area of the duct is multiplied by the average air velocity to find the volume per time or flow rate. On the other hand, gathering data accurately and precisely to measure air velocity across ducts, has been more difficult due to differing degrees of friction across a duct.
