Resumen
Method for correcting measurement errors caused by the intensity of precipitation in tipping cup rain gauges or any instrument for measuring fluids based on the tipping cup principle. The method reduces measurement errors due to the variation in the intensity of precipitation and characterizes the behavior of the mechanism in instruments for measuring fluids with tilting cups. Characterizing the addition of surpluses during the movement of the rocker, the fall time of the bowl, its variation with the intensity of precipitation and the decrease in the nominal tipping volume. Through the relationship between the increase in excess water and the reduction in the tipping volume, caused by the variation in the fall time of the rocker arm and the water thrust. This method is industrializable, reduces measurement errors, easy to implement, automatable and applicable to any tipping cup equipment. (Machine-translation by Google Translate, not legally binding)
