Flow Research Magazine Special Report: Multi-Variable Vortex Flow Meters

From Nice Instrumentation, Inc.

In a "Worldflow Special Report," Flow Research magazine discusses Nice Instrumentation's new line of multi-variable vortex flow meters. This article also notes how a recent American Petroleum Institute draft standard may spur growth in the vortex flow meter market.

Flow Meters
Flow meters (flowmeters) and flow sensors are devices used for measuring the flow rate or quantity of a moving fluid or gas.
Mass Flow Meters and Controllers
Mass flow meters and controllers measure flow rate in units of mass or volume per units of time (e.g., pounds per minute). They are designed for use with gases, liquids, steams, or slurries. 
Vortex Flow Meters
Vortex flow meters are flow sensors that detect the frequency of vortices shed by a bluff body placed in a flow stream. The frequency of the vortices is proportional to the flow velocity.
Air Velocity Flow Sensors
Air velocity flow sensors measure air velocity or volume flow using insertion probes or capture hoods.
Flow Computers, Totalizers, and Indicators
Flow computers, totalizers, and rate indicators integrate the functions of flow and temperature measurement, computation, data acquisition, input / output (I/O) standardization, and closed loop control. They require external sensor inputs and may be used as local rate indicators.
