What are the different types of flow meters?

For different working principle, We offer different types of flow meters, like: Differential Pressure Flow Meters Orifice Plate Venturi Tube Flow Nozzles The Sonic Nozzle – Critical (Choked) Flow Nozzle Calorimetric Flowmeter Ultrasonic Doppler Flowmeter Positive Displacement Flowmeter Variable Area Flowmeter or Rotameter Velocity Flowmeters Pitot Tubes Electromagnetic Flowmeter Turbine Flowmeter Vortex Flow Meter Thermal Flowmeter Coriolis Flowmeter Mass Flowmeters Open Channel Flowmeters Extended reading: How does a rotameter work

What is the concept of positive displacement flow meters?

A positive displacement meter is a type of flow meter that requires fluid to mechanically displace components in the meter in order for flow measurement. Positive displacement (PD) flow meters measure the volumetric flow rate of a moving fluid or gas by dividing the media into fixed, metered volumes (finite increments or volumes of the fluid). A basic analogy would be holding a bucket below a tap, filling it to a set level, then quickly replacing it with another bucket and timing the rate at which the buckets are filled (or the total number of buckets for the “totalized” flow). With appropriate pressure and temperature compensation, the mass flow rate can be accurately determined.

What are the applications of positive displacement flow meter?

The industries where they are used in descending order are oil and gas, water and wastewater, chemical, power, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, pulp and paper, metals and mining and aerospace.

What is the difference between the flow meter and rotameter?

Rotameter measures the fluid flow based on the throttling principle. But it changes the flow area of the fluid to keep the differential pressure between the top and bottom of the rotor constant, so it is also called variable flow area constant differential pressure flowmeter, also called float flowmeter.
