Second, the working principle:
ZW - LUGB seriesPressure compensation in the measuring tube vertical vortex flowmeter insert a pillars, on both sides of the fluid through the pillars is alternately with the rules of the vortex, the spiral column is called the karman vortex street.The release of the karman vortex street frequency is related to the width of the fluid velocity and pillars, expressed by the type:
f＝St·v/d
Type: - the release of the karman vortex street frequency f
St - coefficient (called, ha)
V - velocity
D - the width of the pillars
Karman vortex street release frequency f and is directly proportional to the velocity v, so by measuring the karman vortex street release frequency to calculate the instantaneous flow rate.
Stern lo ha is one of the important coefficient of vortex flowmeter.In its number of St 0.17 straight part of the material, the release of the vortex frequency is proportional to the velocity of flow, so check out the velocity v, frequency f can be obtained to calculate volume flow by v.
