Fluid Mechanics of Flow Metering
Author: Wolfgang MerzkirchPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9783540222422
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
Flow meters measure the volumetric flow rate in a pipeline. Most meters are based on deriving a signal from the fluid flow and calibrating the signal against the volumetric flow rate. The calibration is done in fully-developed flow, and the same state of flow must exist at the meter’s position when it is in practical use. Because the field of flow metering has been neglected by fluid mechanicists for a long time, this book addresses two major fluid mechanical problems in flow metering: the analysis of signal generation in turbulent pipe flow, which explains the function of the meter beyond a simple calibration, and the possible use of a meter in non-developed flows. These problems are investigated with reference to, and examples from, a variety of meters, e.g. ultrasound cross-correlation meters, vortex meters, and turbine meters. Studying these problems requires consideration of specific phenomena in turbulent non-developed pipe flow, as caused by installations, and finding special solutions with signal processing, both of which are included in the book.

Unitary Analysis, Synthesis, and Classification of Flow Meters
Author: Horia Mihai MoțitPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1351396668
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 102
Book Description
This book is the first to present flow measurement as an independent branch of the measurement techniques, according to a new global and unitary approach for the measurement of fluid flow field, starting from finding its unitary fundamental bases. Furthermore, it elaborates the method of unitary analysis/synthesis and classification of compound gauging structures (CGS): the UASC – CGS method. These methods ensure, in a systematic and predictable way, both the analysis of the types of flow meters made until present (i.e. CGS) and the synthesis of new types of flowmeters. The book outlines new contributions in this field, including separately, for flow meters, and CGS: structural schemes and their unitary, unitary classification, unitary logical matrix, method of unitary analysis/synthesis and classification.

ISBN:
Category : Flow meters
Languages : en
Pages : 22
Book Description
A recent development in the retail distribution of fuel oil to individual residences and to mobile homes involves the use of small, slow-flow meters.A technical investigation was conducted by Office of Weights and Measures to develop testing equipment and test procedures that could be used to evaluate the accuracy characteristics of these meters.The report describes the testing systems and test procedures that were developed, as well as the data that were obtained during the course of the investigation.

Pages : 5
Book Description
Golf courses, municipalities, even families trying to ration their water consumption rely on inexpensive and durable water meters, like the TM Series Digital Flow Meter sold by Assured Automation. Water meters provide a quantitative analysis of water consumption reduction efforts, and by calculating irrigation volumes, they enable golf course superintendents to effectively manage water consumption and avoid costly municipal fines.
Fluid Flow Measurement

Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
There is a tendency to make flow measurement a highly theoretical and technical subject but what most influences quality measurement is the practical application of meters, metering principles, and metering equipment and the use of quality equipment that can continue to function through the years with proper maintenance have the most influence in obtaining quality measurement. This guide provides a review of basic laws and principles, an overview of physical characteristics and behavior of gases and liquids, and a look at the dynamics of flow. The authors examine applications of specific meters, readout and related devices, and proving systems. Practical guidelines for the meter in use, condition of the fluid, details of the entire metering system, installation and operation, and the timing and quality of maintenance are also included. This book is dedicated to condensing and sharing the authors' extensive experience in solving flow measurement problems with design engineers, operating personnel (from top supervisors to the newest testers), academically-based engineers, engineers of the manufacturers of flow meter equipment, worldwide practitioners, theorists, and people just getting into the business. The authors' many years of experience are brought to bear in a thorough review of fluid flow measurement methods and applications Avoids theory and focuses on presentation of practical data for the novice and veteran engineer Useful for a wide range of engineers and technicians (as well as students) in a wide range of industries and applications
