The paper describes the application of the thermocorrelation method for measuring the velocity in a current-carrying liquid. An electrovortex flow occurs when the current passing through a conducting medium interacts with its own magnetic field. Measurements of the velocity of the turbulent electrovortex flow of the liquid metal (eutectic alloy In-Ga-Sn) were carried out in a hemispherical container in the range of currents of 100–450 amperes in the presence and absence of compensation of the Earth’s magnetic field. The efficiency of the thermocorrelation method in a current-carrying liquid has been demonstrated. The dependences of the axial velocity on the current and the velocity profiles along the axis were obtained. It was found that the presence of the Earth’s magnetic field leads to a significant decrease in the average value of the axial velocity in the entire range of currents.


The measurement of the vertical component of the earth’s magnetic field is a less simple operation than that of the horizontal component. The horizontal field measurements are on a satisfactory basis, whether made by the swinging magnet method, or by the more recently developed electric magnetometers, in which known magnetic fields may be provided by means of known currents flowing through coils of known dimensions.

Results of a study at Brisbane of individual night-time sferics of known origin are described. A propagation attenuation minimum was observed in the 3-6 kHz range. The geographic distribution of sferic types was also examined. Apparent propagation asynunetries were observed, since sferics were detected at greater ranges to the west than to the east at 10 kHz, whilst the number of tweek-sferics arising from the east was about four times that arising from the west. Comparison with European studies suggest that these asymmetries are general. These results are then " interpreted in terms of an ionospheric reflection cgefficient which is a function of the effective angle of incidence of the wave on the ionosphere and of orientation with respect to the Earth's magnetic field within the ionosphere.
