Features

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 wafer installation

The vortex flow meter uses the theories of Kamen and Strohal about the creation of vortex and the connection between vortex and flow to measure the flow of steam, gas, and low-viscosity liquid. The source of the vortex is a triangular column that is vertically injected into the body, Karman vortices with different orientations and regularities are alternatively formed behind the triangle column as the medium passes through the body. The vortex's separation frequency is F. It is proportionate to the medium's V flow velocity. The fluid flow rate may be determined by counting the number of vortices passing through the sensor head. The volume flowrate of the measured medium can then be computed based on the diameter of the meter body.It might be challenging to obtain the required straight lengths, particularly in small plants. It is important to keep in mind that Vortex meters may be placed at any angle, vertically, or horizontally as long as they are kept wet. In order to get upward flow, consider placing vertically.

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 wafer installation

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. The calculation f=(St*V)/c*D provides the frequency since the inner diameter of the pipe and the breadth of the blockage will both be roughly constant.

Applications

Heating and Cooling Reactors

Heating and cooling reactors are crucial components in various industrial processes, particularly in chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries. These reactors are used for carrying out reactions under controlled temperature conditions.

Disinfecting and
Sterilizing

Disinfection and sterilization are critical processes across various industries, particularly in healthcare, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and biotechnology. These applications ensure the elimination of harmful microorganisms.

Waste Heat Recovery Boilers

Waste heat recovery boilers are essential components in industries where significant amounts of heat are generated during various processes but are typically wasted. These boilers capture this waste heat and convert it into useful energy, thereby improving.

Dyeing WasteWater

Treatment of highly coloured wastewater containing a variety of dyes in varying quantities is a major component of wastewater treatment in the textile and dye industry.The flow of dye into the interior of the fibre as well as the interaction between a dye .

Exhaust Gas Treatment

Exhaust gas treatment systems (EGTS), also referred to as SOX scrubbers, are an alternative to these solutions that clean the exhaust gas in order to reduce SOX emissions to a level that is equivalent to the acceptable fuel sulphur
content.

Fertigation System

Fertigation is the process of injecting fertilisers into an irrigation system for the purpose of amending the soil, the water, and other water-soluble goods. Adding chemicals to an irrigation system is known as chemigation, which is connected to fertigation.
