Vortex Flowmeter: Measuring Viscous Media

The vortex flow meter is a high-precision flow meter widely used in industrial flow measurement. The vortex flow meter has a simple structure, high measurement accuracy, and can measure the viscous media. This article will introduce the characteristics of vortex shedding flow meters and their application cases in different industries.

The vortex water flow meter is an instrument that uses the correlation between turbine speed and flow to measure flow. The main structure of the vortex flow meter consists of two parts: the turbine and the sensor. When the medium flows through the turbine, the turbine rotates due to vortex action. The rotation speed of the turbine is proportional to the flow rate of the medium. The sensor can calculate the flow rate by detecting the frequency of turbine rotation.

Vortex flow sensor can not only measure low viscosity media but also medium and high-viscosity media. For example, the vortex shedding flow meter can measure the media, such as petroleum, asphalt, coatings, emulsions, etc. Traditional flow meters will cause errors when measuring viscous media, but vortex steam flow meters can effectively avoid this problem.

The accuracy of the vortex flow sensor is as high as ±1.0%. Therefore, the accuracy of vortex steam flow meter is much higher than that of traditional flow meters. The measurement accuracy of the vortex flow sensor can meet various requirements in industrial production.

The structure of the vortex flow meter is simple, consisting of only two parts: the turbine and the sensor. The vortex flow sensor is durable and easy to maintain.

Vortex flow meters are widely used in flow measurement in industrial fields. The following are several application cases of vortex water flow meters.

In chemical production processes, the vortex flow sensors can measure the flow of a variety of liquid media, such as acids, alkalis, organic solvents, etc. At the same time, vortex steam flow meters are also suitable for measuring gas flow. Due to the vortex steam flow meter's excellent performance in measuring viscous media, vortex shedding flow meters are widely used in the chemical industry to measure the flow of viscous media such as petroleum, refining, fertilizers, and coatings.

In the pharmaceutical production process, the vortex water flow meters can measure the flow of pharmaceutical liquids in the pharmaceutical industry, such as acid-base solutions, cell culture fluids, viscous pharmaceutical injections, etc.

In food and beverage production, the vortex water flow meters can measure many viscous food liquids, such as juices, dairy products, syrups, etc. Vortex flow meters can measure the flow of gases, such as carbon dioxide gas flow.

The vortex shedding flow meter is a flow-measuring instrument with a simple structure, easy maintenance, and high measurement accuracy. It is suitable for measuring a variety of viscous media. Vortex flow sensors are widely used in the industrial field for flow measurement in chemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and other industries.
