The working principle of the DN80 liquid turbine flowmeter

2025-08-22 14:23:00

The working principle of the DN80 liquid turbine flowmeter The turbine flowmeter is composed of a turbine, bearings, a preamplifier and a display instrument. The fluid to be measured impacts the turbine blades, causing the turbine to rotate. The rotational speed of the turbine varies with the flow rate; that is, when the flow rate is large, the rotational speed of the turbine is also high. Then, the rotational speed of the turbine is converted into electrical pulses of the corresponding frequency by the magnetic-electric conversion device. After being amplified by the preamplifier, it is sent to the display instrument for counting and display. The instantaneous flow rate and cumulative flow rate can be calculated based on the number of pulses per unit time and the cumulative number of pulses. The working principle of the sensor is that when the fluid flows along the axis of the pipe and impacts the turbine blades, a force proportional to the product of the flow rate qv, flow velocity V and fluid density ρ acts on the blades, driving the turbine to rotate. While the turbine rotates, the blades periodically cut the magnetic field lines generated by the electromagnet, altering the magnetic flux of the coil. According to the principle of electromagnetic induction, a pulsating potential signal will be induced in the coil, and the frequency of this pulsating signal is directly proportional to the flow rate of the fluid being measured. Among them, qv represents the total volume of the fluid, and N is the total number of pulsations generated by the flow sensor. ξ is the flow coefficient.

The important characteristic parameters of sensors vary among different instruments and change with the wear and tear of the instruments over long-term use. Its meaning is the number of pulses output by the flow sensor when a unit volume of flow passes through it. The pulse signal output by the sensor, after being amplified by the preamplifier, is sent to the display instrument, thus enabling the measurement of flow.

Performance characteristics of remote transmission electromagnetic flowmeter It is a flow meter with high precision, high reliability and long service life. Therefore, in the process of designing the product structure, selecting materials, formulating processes, production assembly and factory testing, we are very meticulous and careful in every link. We have also independently designed a set of advanced domestic production equipment and flow actual flow calibration devices specifically for electromagnetic flow meters. The remote transmission electromagnetic flowmeter can thus ensure the long-term high quality of the product both in software and hardware. The remote transmission electromagnetic flowmeter is specially designed with a wide-temperature Chinese LCD display with backlight. It is fully functional, practical, intuitive in display and convenient to operate and use, which can reduce the inconvenience caused by the English menu of other electromagnetic flowmeters. In addition, we have designed a multi-electrode structure, which further ensures measurement accuracy and eliminates the need for grounding rings at any time, reducing the volume of the instrument and the trouble of installation and maintenance.

How to correctly select a remote transmission electromagnetic flowmeter The actual maximum working pressure must be less than the rated working pressure of the flowmeter. The high working temperature and low temperature must comply with the temperature requirements specified by the flowmeter. Determine whether there is negative pressure. You can select the corresponding electromagnetic flowmeter based on the flow rate in the above table. If the inner diameter of the selected electromagnetic flowmeter does not match that of the current process pipeline, pipe reduction or expansion should be carried out. If the pipeline of the remote electromagnetic flowmeter undergoes pipe contraction, it should be considered whether the pressure loss caused by the pipe contraction will affect the process flow. Considering the product price, an electromagnetic flowmeter with a smaller diameter can be selected, which relatively reduces investment. When measuring clean water, the economic flow rate should be 1.5-3m/s. When measuring solutions that are prone to crystallization, the flow rate should be appropriately increased, preferably 3-4m/s, to achieve self-cleaning and prevent adhesion and deposition, etc. When the remote transmission electromagnetic flowmeter consumes fluid, the flow rate should be appropriately reduced, with 1.0-2m/s being ideal, to minimize wear on the inner lining and electrode ground. In practical applications, it rarely exceeds 7m/s, and exceeding 10m/s is even rarer.
