Vortex Flow Meter for Natural Gas, Steam, Nitrogen, Compressed Air, Liquid, Gasoline, Sewage, Intelligent High-Precision Metering Instrument

I. Introduction to Xiamen Jingchuan Shares JCVF Vortex Flowmeter:

The JCVF vortex flowmeter measures the volume flow, standard condition volume flow, or mass flow of gases, steam, or liquids based on the Karman vortex principle. It can also serve as a flow transmitter in automated control systems. This instrument employs advanced differential technology, combined with isolation and filtering measures, overcoming issues such as poor shock resistance and small signal data disorder found in similar products. It utilizes unique sensor encapsulation technology and protective measures to ensure product reliability. The product comes in two forms: basic and composite. The basic type measures a single flow signal, while the composite type can simultaneously measure temperature, pressure, and flow. Each form is available in integrated and split structures to accommodate different installation environments.

II. Working Principle of Xiamen Jingchuan Shares JCVF Vortex Flowmeter:               

The vortex flowmeter consists of a vortex generator designed within the flow field, a detection probe, and corresponding electronic circuits. When fluid flows past the vortex generator, alternating rows of vortices form on both sides, known as Karman vortex streets. Based on Karman vortex street theory, Strouhal further proposed that the frequency of the Karman vortex street is proportional to the fluid velocity and provided the relationship between frequency and velocity: f

= St × V/d   Where:  

f Vortex generation frequency (Hz)

V Average flow velocity on both sides of the vortex generator (m/s)

St Strouhal coefficient (constant)                                            

These alternating vortices create a series of alternating negative pressures that act on the detection probe, generating a series of alternating electrical signals. After conversion, shaping, and amplification by the preamplifier, a pulse frequency signal (or standard signal) proportional to the vortex synchronization is output.
