- Abstract:
- This paper deals with the development of a diagnostic system for flowmeters, that does not only make flowmeters work optimal under the toughest conditions, but can also diagnose the condition of instrument, process and installation. The paper describes the promising results of a pilot project for vortex flowmeters. Investigated items are vibrations, pulsations and cavitation. Making the flowmeter insensitive to these disturbances makes it possible to measure lower flow rates than before.
