Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meters

 

 

Ultrasonic meters include Doppler Effect meters and time of flight meters. Doppler meters measure the frequency shifts caused by liquid flow. The frequency shift is proportional to the liquid's velocity. Time of flight ultrasonic meters use the speed of the signal traveling between two transducers. This speed increases or decreases with the direction of transmission and the velocity of the liquid being measured. Time of flight meters do not work well with liquids with suspended solids or air gaps.
