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.

A DP transmitter is used to measure the level of an open tank. The drain line of the tank is connected to a control valve, and is configured as, if the level of the tank is 90% the valve should get open 10%. And if the tank level is 10%, the valve should get open 90%. Draw wiring diagram and explain how to configure DP transmitter and control valve using HART communicator. If the span error at output is 1%, what will be the %opening of the control valve at 60% level of the tank?
