What is the working principle of an intelligent vortex flowmeter??
The working principle of the intelligent vortex flowmeter is to set up a triangular column type vortex generator in the fluid, which alternately generates regular vortices with buried objects from both sides of the vortex generator. This type of vortex is called the Karman vortex street vortex, as shown in the right figure. The vortex columns are asymmetrically arranged downstream of the vortex generator.. Assuming the frequency of vortex occurrence is f, the average flow velocity of the measured medium is d, the width of the upstream face of the vortex generator is d, and the diameter of the body is D, the following relationship can be obtained: f=SrU1/d=SrU/md (1), where U1- the average flow velocity on both sides of the vortex generator, m/s; Sr Strouhal number; The ratio of the bow shaped area on both sides of the m - vortex generator to the cross-sectional area of the pipeline is qv, which is qv=π D2U/4=π D2mdf/4Sr (2) K=f/qv=[π D2md/4Sr] -1 (3). In equation K - the instrument coefficient of the flowmeter is the number of pulses/m3 (P/m3). K is not only related to the geometric dimensions of the vortex generator and pipeline, but also to the Strouhal number. The Strouhal number is a dimensionless parameter that is related to the shape of the vortex generator and the Reynolds number. Figure 2 shows the relationship between the Strouhal number of a cylindrical vortex generator and the Reynolds number of a pipeline. As shown in the figure, Sr can be regarded as a constant within the range of ReD=2 × 104 to 7 × 106, which is the normal operating range of the instrument.
