Impeller Flowmeters: Features, Installation Considerations & Uses
Impeller flowmeters at times referred to as paddlewheel meters are one of the frequently utilized flowmeters for industrial flow measurement applications. Impeller flowmeters are cost effective compared to turbine meters and can be used in applications that are challenging to handle with other types of flow metering instruments. They are related to turbine meters in…

How to Perform Mass flow Measurements with DP sensors
Let’s assume we are measuring flow by differential-creating primary device for example an orifice plate and a DP cell as illustrated in Figure 1 below: The differential head across the primary device is corrected for temperature variation in the first calculation block, but there is no need for pressure correction because a liquid is virtually…
