Square-root characteristics of Differential Pressure Flow Meters
Differential pressure developed by a venturi, orifice plate, pitot tube, or any other flow element is proportional to the square-root of flow rate.
Flow Measurement
Flow Measurement: Learn about Flow Sensors like Orifice, Venturi, Annubar, Pitot, Magnetic, Turbine, Ultrasonic, Coriolis flow meters, etc.
Mass Flow Calculations
Measurements of mass flow are preferred over measurements of volumetric flow in process applications where mass balance is important.
Volumetric Flow Calculations
Volumetric Flow Calculations use differential pressure produced by any flow element tube with any particular fluid density at a specified flow rate.
Pressure based Flow Meters
Pressure based Flow Meters like differential pressure transmitters are used to measure the pressure drop to calculate equivalent flow rate.
Continuous Flow Measurement
The Continuous measurement of fluid flow is arguably the single most complex type of process variable measurement in all of industrial instrumentation.
Facts About Orifice Flow Meters
The orifice plate is for flow measurement : an inexpensive yet effective primary sensing element. Study Orifice Flow Meters and Sensors.
Difference between Invasive, Non-invasive, Intrusive & Non-intrusive
Invasive Sensor will be in contact with process flow and the Intrusive Sensor will be mounted on the pipeline but it can be in contact or no contact with flow.
Metal Tube Variable Area Flow Meters Principle
Metal Tube Variable Area Flow Meters measure the volumetric flow rate of liquid and gases that operate on the float principle.
Basics of Flow Measurement
Flow is defined as fluid in motion. Factors Affecting Flow Rates in pipes are velocity, viscosity, and density of the fluid. Study Basics of Flow Measurement.
Important Factors in Flow Measurement
Important Factors in Flow Measurement are viscosity, density, specific gravity, compressibility, head loss, discharge coefficient, and beta ratio.
