Working principle of different types of flowmeters
There are different types of flowmeters according to their principles which are listed below. (1) Mass flow meter (2) Magnetic flow meter (3) Vortex flow meter (4) Thermal mass flowmeter This flowmeters are often used in the chemical industries,petrochemical industries,refinery etc. Now,Brifely explain the principle of different types of flowmeter. (1) Mass flow meter Mass flow meter works on "Coriolis principle" which is states that it contains a vibrating tube in which a flowing fluid causes changes in frequency,phase,shift and amplitude. The output is carried out on pc-board and the output is directly proportional to the mass flow rate. This flowmeter is most accurate and reliable. This flowmeter consist a two tube and when the fluid flow in this tube,it is oscillate symmetrically and sensor sense a signal and the result produced in the form of sinewave. As shown in fig,there is a three parts,(1) Pick up 1 (2) Pick up 2 (3) Driver. The
