Vortex flow meters measure fluid velocity using a principle of operation referred to as the von Kármán effect, which states that when flow passes by a bluff body, a repeating pattern of swirling vortices is generated.
How vortex is formed in vortex flowmeter?
Vortex flow meters operate under the vortex shedding principle, where an oscillating vortexes occur when a fluid such as water flow past a bluff (as opposed to streamlined) body. The frequency that the vortexes are shed depend on the size and shape of the body.
What is the use of vortex flow meter?
The vortex flowmeter is a broad-spectrum flow meter which can be used for metering, measurement and control of most steam, gas and liquid flow for a very unique medium versatility, high stability and high reliability with no moving parts, simple structure and low failure rate.
