Vortex flowmeters, which are specifically designed to detect lower viscosity gases, liquids, and steam, operate based on the theory of Karman and Strouhal, which establishes the relationship between flow and vortex generation.
01
Vortex flowmeter with temperature & pressure compensation
A device that measures the flow rate of fluids, such as steam, via a pipe is called a vortex steam flow meter. It measures the frequency at which the fluid creates vortices as it moves through a bluff body in the pipe. In power production plants, where precise steam flow measurement is essential for efficiency and energy savings, the vortex steam flow meter is very helpful.The sensor and the transmitter make up the Wellkonix vortex steam flow meter. Vortices occur downstream of the sensor's bluff body, which is inserted into the pipe. A piezoelectric crystal in the sensor detects the pressure variations caused by these vortices. The piezoelectric signal is transformed by the transmitter into a flow rate measurement that may be utilized for process management. In order to maximize steam flow and energy usage, power production plants frequently utilize vortex steam flow meters.
02
Application of vortex flowmeter
Applications include chemical processing, oil and gas extraction, water and wastewater treatment, and food and beverage processing frequently employ vortex shedding flow meters. They are employed to gauge the flow rates of steam, gases, and liquids through pipes and ducts. When it's necessary to measure the total volume or mass of a fluid over a given amount of time.
03
Vortex flowmeter Calibration
For monitoring the flow of liquids, gases, and steam in industrial processes, vortex shedding flow meters are frequently utilized. The frequency at which vortices are shed from a bluff body in the fluid stream is what vortex shedding flow meters utilize to estimate flow rate. In a broad range of flow velocities, pressures, and temperatures, they are capable of measuring flow rate.
Principle of Vortex flowmeter
Vortices are created when a fluid passes a stationary barrier at a specific speed. Karman’s Vortices is the name given to this vortex creation.The form and face width of the bluff body affect the frequency of vortex shedding, which is a direct linear function of fluid velocity. Given that the obstruction’s breadth and the pipe’s inner diameter will remain relatively constant, the frequency may be calculated using the formula f=(St*V)/c*D.
