Abstract

PURPOSE:To exactly measure reifall rate by forming raindrops with water repellent on the inner surface of a funnel, bridging a pair of electrodes with the raindrops dripping through the outlet and counting the generated pulse. CONSTITUTION:By forming a coating film 5 made of such water material as Teslon series on the inner surface of a funnel 2, raindrops generated and grown on the inner surface 4 are dripped through a raindrop guide 8 and the outlet 3. A pair of stripe electrodes 6, 7 are provided at the outlet 3 and every instantaneous bridging by the dripping raindrops is converted to electric pulses with a pulse generation circuit 9. Generated electric pulses are counted at specified time intervals with a pulse counter circuit 10 and the output signal is sent to a rainfall rate calculation circuit 11. The rainfall rate calculation circuit 11 calculates rainfall rate at every time (time rain rate) by dividing the multiplication results of the pulse count value and the raindrop volume by the opening area of the funnel. A rainfall information indicator 12 displays the calculated rain rate digitally or the degree of rain rate step by step.
