Do you want to know different types of liquid flow meters? If yes, this post is for you. But what is a liquid flow meter? It is a tool used to measure the liquid's mass, volumetric, and linear flow rate. The flow rate is calculated using the measurement of the liquid velocity. Here we have different types of liquid flow meters and how fluid measurement is used.

1. Differential pressure meters

It is the best measuring of the flowing liquid based on different pressures. If you want to know the flow rate, you can use a square number of the flow rate. It has 50 percent of the liquid flow measurement for the type of liquid application.

The flow rate has a primary and secondary part of the flow meter. The use of the primary part causes changes in the movement energy. The secondary part calculated the pressure for the given signal that converted to the flow value.

2. Mass flow meter

This is another type of liquid flow meter you can get in the market. For example, you need to know if the mass flow meter is thermal and Coriolis. Therefore, Coriolis is a common one that is used. Those types are made in need of high accuracy of the measurement of the fluid. It also operates for the mass related process of the heat transfer in the reactions of chemicals. Therefore, mass flow is used in the following area: mining, industrial, wastewater, and power industrial.

3.   Velocity flow meter

Here is another awesome type of liquid flow meter. Examples of it include swirl, vortex shedding, turbine, electromagnetic, and many more. The velocity of the flow meter is determined by the measure of speed for the more flow speed. It shows the entire flow area.

The presence of the turbine flow meter in the velocity is used in petroleum pipe. It helps to detect the leak in the pipeline. The turbine is also used in a load of light hydrocarbon.

4.   Open channel flow meter

This is another type of flow meter. You need to know two types of flow meters. When you hear the world open channel, it shows an area within the liquid. An example of it is; tunnels, rivers, and streams. This is the most used in our daily activities.

When you want to check the open channel flow meter, you can use the depth-related method mostly. Those flow rates are calculated using fluid measurements of the inner depth of water.

5.   Positive displacement flow water

Here is our last type of liquid flow meter. It is known because of a fixed volume that displaced between the rotors. It is rotation proportional to the volume of fluid being displayed. It is known for the measurement and design for corrosive fluid such as oval gear, from the non-metallic component of the plastic and ceramic alone.

Conclusion

Here we have a type of liquid flow meters and their fluid measurement. You need to check each of them carefully because it has different functions. Both of them operate well on water surfaces.
