| Abstract: | The article describes a device that could be used for drag measurements in studies of flow-biota interactions at low and high load applications. The device called submersible drag gauge, is designed so that drag forces acting on a test object in a boundary layer flow are measured. It could measure drag on aquatic organisms such as macrophytes, crayfish or mussels, as well as a combination of such organisms and sediments assembled in a variety of arrangements in both laboratory and field conditions. |
