Vortex Flowmeters

Questions & Answers for Vortex Flowmeters

At what price can I purchase a vortex flowmeter?

You can purchase a vortex flowmeter at a minimum rate of Rs 1000-1500. The price will increase as per a vortex flowmeter as per the uses, features, technology, etc.

How would you describe a vortex flowmeter?

A vortex flowmeter is a flow measurement device used for measurement, metering, and control of liquid flow, gas flow, and steam flow for a unique medium versatility, high reliability, and high stability with simple structure, low failure rate, and no moving parts. This broad-spectrum measurement system is easy to maintain and is extensively used in power facilities, heavy industrial applications, and energy industries, etc.

What is the working principle of a vortex flowmeter?

Vortex flowmeters function using a principle of operation called the von Karman effect, which says that when flow passes through a bluff body, a repeating pattern of swirling vortices is produced.

In a vortex flowmeter, an obstacle in the flow path (a shedder bar) serves as the bluff body. The shedder bar makes the process fluid separate and creates areas of alternating differential pressure called vortices just around the backside of the shedder bar.
