Description Preliminary studies employed an 8-inch (outlet diameter) contracting cone and an 8-inch converging nozzle. The design of the cone is based on an electromagnetic analogy reported by Smith and Wang, while the nozzle was designed assuming potential flow and using numerical methods to obtain the solution. Both designs yielded fairly uniform velocity fields, any deviations being primarily due to either construction or measurement techniques. The towing tank rating for a Pygmy current meter was...
