Even the basic version of the vortex flowmeter SITRANS FX330 is equipped with temperature compensation for saturated steam applications. With the optional pressure sensor the SITRANS FX330 has integrated density compensation for calculation of corrected volume and mass (online density compensation). The density compensation for calculation of corrected volume and mass is based on the standards of NIST for gases and IAPWS for steam.

Function
Vortex flowmeters are used to measure the flow of gases, vapors and liquids in completely filled pipes. The measuring principle is based on the principle of the Karman vortex street. Inside the measuring sensor vortices are shed from a bluff body and are detected by a sensor located behind. The frequency f of the vortex shedding is proportional to the flow velocity v.The nondimensional Strouhal number S describes the relationshipbetween vortex frequency f, width b of the bluff body and the mean flow velocity v:f = (S · v) / b
The vortex frequency is recorded at the sensor and evaluated at the converter.
The vortex frequency is recorded at the sensor and evaluated at the converter.
