Abstract
The devices employed for the measurement of discharges in free surface channels usually generate a great headloss, incompatible with irrigation purposes in flat areas. To solve this problem, the author presents a new type of flowmeter which combines the advantages of the triangular weir and those of the Parshall weir.
