	Brainboost - what is parshall flume
		The portion of the flume downstream from the end of the converging section need not be constructed if the flume has been set for free flow where it is not expected to operate above submergence limit.
		The Parshall flume is a particular form of venturi flume and is named for its principal developer, the late Mr Ralph L Parshall (Water Measurement Manual, US Bureau of Reclamation, 1984).".
		When a Parshall flume is installed with a large fall downstream, which assures that submerged flow conditions will not occur, there is no need to construct the portion downstream of the throat.

		The flume is housed at the International Center for Aquatic Research (ICAR) in Colorado Springs, Colo. Located on the grounds of the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo., the ICAR facility is the focal point for all U.S. Olympic aquatic sports efforts.
		The flume was closed in 1996-97 during the construction of the new USA Swimming headquarters, which is now attached to the flume.
		The biochemistry lab, from which the flume is controlled, was renovated as well, including the installation of a viewing window for tourists to safely view the action in the lab and flume.

	Science Fair Projects - Log flume
		A log flume is a horizontal structure that has a cavity for flowing water to carry lumber and logs and generally spans many miles.
		The longest log flume is the Kings River Flume in Sanger, California.
		Log flumes are a variant on the Shoot the Chutes ride at Coney Island's Luna Park, in which a boat slid down a long chute and splashed into a pond.

	Flume and Bridge (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Two structures epitomize the Cottage Grove area in the pre-dam period: the wooden lumber flumes that mills used to transport lumber from forest to mill, and the covered wooden bridges that still draw tourists to the region.
		Flumes also provided daredevil lumbermen a quick, wet ride to the mill and children with a cool place to play.
		Marie Geer, whose husband was the last person to go down the flume, used some of the timbers for the sub-flooring of her new home.

	LOG FLUME : Encyclopedia Entry
		A log flume is a flume specifically constructed to transport lumber and logs down mountainous terrain to a sawmill by using flowing water.
		Log flumes are a variant of the Boat Chute, constructed in 1926 and 1927 at Lake Winnepesaukah Amusement Park in Chattanooga Tennessee, the oldest and first chute ride ever built.
		Log flumes which are placed indoors instead of out in the open, or at least covered by some sort of shelter, are sometimes referred to as river caves (such as the "Niagara Falls" flume ride in Sunway Lagoon Theme Park, Malaysia) to set them apart from typical log flumes.

	About the Flume
		A flume is an semi-enclosed channel in which water flows from one end to the other.
		The flume is intended to demonstrate the mechanics of flow in a river to elementary and middle school aged students.
		Although the flume is primarily housed at the Redwood Discovery Museum, the flume is designed and intended to be used by ERE students for educational outreach activities within the community.

	The Flume at Carlsbad — Watering the Land:Southern New Mexico Travel and Tourism Information
		According to the dictionary, it is a narrow gorge with a stream flowing through it, usually, or an artificial channel or chute for a stream of water.
		Irrigation was a necessity for the arid Southwest as it couldn't depend on rainfall and snow for moisture to grow crops.
		The Flume was completed in 1890 but was destroyed by a flood in 1902.

	Parshall Flumes ,Palmer-Bowlus Flume, Trapezoidal ut Cutthroat
		Small size trapezoidal flumes have a v-shaped throat, the bottom of which is at the same elevation as the channel invert - thus able to produce accurate readings at very low flows without the disadvantages of a v-notch or rectangular weir.
		Similar to the Parshall flume except that the bottom is at the same elevation as the channel invert throughout the length of the flume.
		The cutthroat flume's greatest advantage is in its use where head loss is limited.

	Flume Facility
		LUMCON houses a world-class flume facility for studying the role of hydromechanical forces in geological, biological, and chemical processes.
		The racetrack flume was designed and constructed by LUMCON staff based on a prototype located at the University of Washington’s Friday Harbor Marine Laboratory.
		The drive mechanism is designed so the paddles enter, traverse, and exit the flume in a vertical position to reduce the introduction of secondary flows.

		SkIO's flume facility was built to enable scientists to study the hydrodynamic processes of the turbulent boundary layer within the controlled environment of the laboratory.
		The flume is connected to the Institute's filtered seawater system and has its own filtration and UV sterilization capabilities.
		Thus the flume is uniquely designed to sustain live populations of marine animals under realistic current and turbulent conditions.

	SummitPost - Mount Flume -- Climbing, Hiking & Mountaineering
		Flume Slide Route: The shortest way to reach the summit is a 4.8 mile route that includes the class 3 Flume Slide.
		Note from John: I've described Mount Flume rather than Mount Liberty (131' taller) because I think Mount Flume is a much more interesting peak given the Flume Slide.
		The Flume is the bottom part of the Flume Brook which an entrance fee is charged to see the rock gorge (though I've heard you can get in w/o a fee during the winter).

	Congressman Frank Pallone, Jr. (NJ06) - New Jersey D.E.P. Assures Pallone Deal Lake Flume Will be Open Before Run ...
		Massive runs of alewife and blueback herring species normally swim up the flume to return to rivers and creeks along the Jersey Shore to spawn.
		In recent years, however, sand has choked the flume, preventing herring from returning at low tide and often exposing them to severe gull predation.
		The project to extend the flume along the north side of the existing jetty should have been completed in the fall of 2004.

	Tracom Fiberglass Products-Flume Application Form
		Flumes are fixed geometry hydraulic structures (primary devices) that increase the velocity of an incoming liquid in such a way that a known flow to level relationship is generated.
		Flumes are only for use where open channel flow conditions (those flows in which the liquid flows with a free surface) exist at all times and where the flow entering the flume is sub-critical.
		Your inquiry will be analyzed by an experienced application specialist who will promptly provide you with a flume quotation.

	H-Flume
		The bottom is flat and unobstructed like a flume so silt and sediment will pass through more freely.
		However, the flow is controlled so it can be measured, by discharging through a sharp-edged opening like a weir, that is cut at an angle sloping back against the oncoming flow.
		Flume size is determined by the depth or height of the flume at its entrance.
