what is the basic principal of vertax flow meter..

Answer / abhishek k sharma

vortex is natural phenomena occurring when liquid flow
around a bluff object.
For e.g when we throw the stone in water it generates vortex
in round circle.
same happens when a object is placed in between running liquid.
In vortex flow meter same is used and the frequency of
vortex generated is directly proportional to velocity of
liquid flowin.

what is the basic principal of vertax flow meter..

Answer / rana mujahid

in vortax flow used a restriction in the flow path which
creat the vortax that are directally proportional to the
velocity of flow.and there used a piezoelectric meterial
these vortax strikes on piezo which creates milivoltes which
are directally prpotional to strike rate of vortax..

Answer / www.islamqa.com

Vortex flowmeter is a velocity based flow measurement device.

It consists of a flow tube with "Bluff body"/object with a specific dimensions/shape put in the flow path to generate vortices in the flow stream.

The vortices generation rate is proportional with fluid flowrate, these vortices is hitting a pressure sensor (piezoelectric type), the hitting rate is proportional to the flowrate.

The basic formula for getting fluid velocity:
V=DF/S
D:Bluff body dimension
F:vortices hitting frequency which is measured by pressure sensor.
S:Strouhal No.
Q=A.V, A:Flow path area

Adv. of no moving parts exist so we have high accuracy & stop in case of sudden flow stopping.

Disadv. of low accuracy with low flowrate.
