Abstract
An electromagnetic water current meter includes a cylindrical transducer body of circular cross-section with two pairs of electrodes, each pair of electrodes rotated 90.degree. around the transducer axis with respect to the other pair. Each electrode extends beyond the surface of the body of the transducer and each pair of electrodes lie in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the transducer. The planes of each of the pairs of electrodes are offset with respect to each other preferably by a distance equal to the diameter of the transducer. Each electrode is preferably of the form of a truncated cone.
