Investigation of the Wind-Induced Airflow Pattern Near the Thies LPM Precipitation Gauge

Investigation of the Wind-Induced Airflow Pattern Near the Thies LPM Precipitation Gauge

The airflow velocity pattern generated by a widely used non-catching precipitation gauge (the Thies laser precipitation monitor or LPM) when immersed in a wind field is investigated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The simulation numerically solves the unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stok...
