What are the principles and common faults of vortex flowmeter?
2. Reasons for large fluctuations in vortex flowmeters
As a brand manufacturer that often uses imported vortex flowmeters from the United States, KNKE is happy to answer your questions..
1、 Parameter setting issue: Incorrect flow meter parameter settings may result in inaccurate instrument readings. Incorrect parameter settings can cause deviations in the calculation of the full frequency of the secondary instrument. If the difference in full frequency is not significant, the indication may be inaccurate for a long time. If the actual full frequency is greater than the calculated value, it may cause significant fluctuations in the indication, making it difficult to accurately read the beam. Inconsistencies in parameters in the data can also affect the establishment of parameters. By recalibrating and comparing with each other, parameters can be determined and problems can be solved.
2、 Selection issue: In some cases with turbulence, due to changes in process conditions, the diameter selection or design selection of the vortex flowmeter may need to be adjusted. In actual selection, smaller pipe diameters should be chosen as much as possible to improve measurement accuracy. For example, a set of vortex pipeline equipment provides services to multiple devices, but due to some devices not being used simultaneously, the actual flow rate decreases. The original design selected a diameter that was too large, making it impossible to ensure accurate indication at low flow rates. When the traffic is high, the device can still be used, but if it needs to be renovated, it may face certain difficulties. The change in process conditio
3、 Installation issue: Insufficient length of the straight pipe section in front of the sensor during installation can affect measurement accuracy. For example, the straight pipe section in front of the sensor is clearly insufficient. As FIC203 is mainly used for control rather than measurement, the current accuracy is acceptable, which is equivalent to downgraded use.
4、 The effect of accumulation on the upstream surface of the vortex generator: If the measured fluid contains viscous particles, these particles may accumulate on the upstream surface of the vortex generator, changing its geometric shape and size, thereby affecting the flow coefficient. Therefore, attention should be paid to cleaning during use.
5、 The influence of temperature on measurement: Temperature changes have two effects on the geometric dimensions of the measuring body: one is the change in the width of the vortex generating body; The second is the change in the inner diameter of the pipeline. Usually, this effect is eliminated by adjusting the K coefficient. Some manufacturers flow meters have implemented fixed temperature correction and real-time temperature correction in software.
3. Will there be data fluctuations when using a vortex flowmeter to measure liquid flow during purging?
When using a vortex flowmeter to measure liquid flow during purging, there is a high probability that data fluctuations will occur. The amplitude and duration of the fluctuations are directly related to the purging pressure, gas-liquid mixing ratio, and flow field stability.
