Volume Flow Rate Measurement
About the volume flow rate measurement
Volume flow rate is the appropriate way
of quantifying the flow of all materials which are in a gaseous,
liquid or semi-liquid slurry form (where solid particles are suspended
in a liquid host). Materials in these forms are carried in pipes, and
the common classes of instrument used for measuring the volume flow
rate can be summarized as follows:
1. Differential pressure meters
2. Variable area meters
3. Positive-displacement meters
4. Turbine flowmeters
5. Electromagnetic flowmeters
6. Vortex-shedding flowmeters
7. Gate-type meters
8. Ultrasonic flowmeters
9. Cross-correlation flowmeters
10. Laser Doppler flowmeters.
