Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of calculating the mean speed of a fluid flowing in an open channel or a partially filled duct, said fluid having a free surface of width L1 extending between the walls of the channel or of the duct, said method comprising the following steps: -local measurements of speed at the surface of the fluid over a zone of width L2, the set of local measurements generating a signal in the form of a spectrum of discrete data expressed in a temporal domain; -conversion of the spectrum of discrete data expressed in the temporal domain into a spectrum of data expressed in a frequency domain via a Fourier transform; -fitting of a Gaussian curve to the spectrum of discrete data expressed in the frequency domain and calculation of the parameters of the Gaussian curve, namely the mean µ and the standard deviation s of the Gaussian curve; the frequency of the mean µ making it possible to calculate the mean surface speed over the zone of width L2 and the standard deviation s making it possible to calculate the distribution of speeds over this same zone of width L2; -calculation of the ratio L2/L1 of the width L2 of the zone impacted during the measurements to the width L1 of the free surface of the fluid; -determination of the mean speed of the fluid within the open channel or the partially filled duct on the basis of the parameters of the Gaussian curve and as a function of the ratio L2/L1.

Abstract: A local clock network (10, 12) has a reference control unit (16a, 16b) having a reference clock, processing unit and data memory. Coupled to each reference clock (16a, 16b) by a fibre optic cable (20a1-20an and 20b1-20bn) are a plurality of remote stations (22a1-22an and 22b1-22bn), typically clients desiring an accurate clock signal which is precisely and reliably synchronised with the local clock signal of other users within the network or interconnected networks. The user units (22a1-22an and 22b1-22bn) are in the form of a clock indicator unit which provides a clock signal for use by the internal client systems. Each network (10, 12) is a closed loop system between the associated reference station (16a, 16b) and the associated remote user stations (22a, 22b). Each reference station (16a, 16b) determines the latency associated with each remote user station (22a1-22an and 22b1-22bn) and generates an offset appropriate for each user station (22a1-22an and 22b1-22bn). Each reference station (16a, 16b) then generates a specific clock signal for each remote user station (22a1-22an and 22b1-22bn) on the basis of its reference clock signal adjusted by the appropriate user station offset. The local user time clocks are thus precisely synchronised to one another. A plurality of separate networks (10, 12) are synchronised by reference to their local Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) clocks, with one reference station acting as a master station.
