Experimental parameters.
| Items | Length/cm | Width/cm | Height/cm | Depth of Water/cm | Volume of Water/cm3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mini tank A* | 3.6 | 4.8 | 3.5 | 3 | 40 |
| Small tank B * | 5 | 6.5 | 7.5 | 3 | 80 |
| Medium tank C * | 8 | 11.8 | 7.5 | 5 | 400 |
| Large tank D * | 12.5 | 17.5 | 13.5 | 10 | 1500 |
| Initial big tank | 50 | 25 | 31 | 28 | 3500 |
| Test tank | 31 | 23 | 16 | ||
| Opaque plate | 21 | 20 | |||
| Transparent plate ** | 21 | 20 | |||
| Water pump | 75 | 50 | 78 | ||
| Annular flume | Inner diameter: 15 | External diameter: 20 | 5 | 5 | |
| Shelter | External diameter:5 | 7.5 | 7.5 |
Note: * A, B, C, and D is cylinder-shaped tank. Hence, the length is equal to the bottom diameter, and the width indicates the up diameter. ** Transparent plate has a 3 cm diameter hole connected with a funnel. The edge of hole is 4 cm far from the bottom (similar to Figure 1 shoaling test).
