I need a Digital Flow Meter for my swim-in-place-pool. Does anyone know a manufacturer who makes them? It should measure the flow that comes out of the propulsion unit.
Who has a good swim meter? Something to measure miles per hour etc.

I see, I kept reading flow...you really want velocity. Two very different things with respect to water.
Velocity=Flow(GPM)/2.45 x ID squared (in inches)
As I recall, velocity is always measured in fps. You will need to make a seperate conversion to MPH.
There are some other formulas as well that might suit your situation a little better. Just search for some water technology websites.
