Why Can't You Choose To Use A Vortex Flowmeter When Choosing A Liquid Turbine Flowmeter?

When choosing a liquid turbine flow meter, a vortex flowmeter is not an ideal choice. The reasons are as follows:

Firstly, the measurement principle of vortex flowmeter is based on the difference in conductivity to measure the liquid flow rate. However, for many different liquids, their conductivity may vary greatly, which affects the measurement accuracy of vortex flow meters. Therefore, when measuring liquids with significant changes in conductivity, vortex flow meters may not provide accurate measurement results.

Secondly, vortex flow meters are also highly sensitive to the flow state of liquids. In a liquid turbine flowmeter, the liquid flows continuously, while in a vortex flowmeter, the flow of the liquid may generate turbulence or vortices, which can affect the measurement accuracy of the vortex flowmeter. Therefore, if the flow state of the liquid is unstable, or there are many cases of turbulence and vortices generated during the flow process, then a vortex flowmeter may not be a good choice.

In addition, the installation requirements for vortex flow meters are relatively high. When installing a vortex flowmeter, it is necessary to ensure that the diameter and shape of the pipeline meet the requirements, otherwise it will affect the measurement results. Therefore, when selecting a vortex flowmeter, it is necessary to consider its installation conditions and requirements, as well as its adaptability to pipeline diameter and shape.

In summary, when choosing a liquid turbine flow meter, we should avoid choosing a vortex flowmeter. Instead, it is advisable to choose flow meters based on more stable and reliable measurement principles, such as ultrasonic flow meters, mass flow meters, etc. These flow meters can provide more accurate and reliable measurement results in various liquid flow states, meeting our measurement needs in various occasions.
