Precession vortex flowmeter
May 07,2025

Precession vortex flowmeter is an advanced flow measurement instrument, which is widely used in the field of industrial flow measurement.
1. Working principle
It is based on the principle of vortex street generated by fluid precession. When the fluid flows through a vortex generator of a specific shape, regular vortices are generated alternately on both sides, and these vortices are released in the fluid at a certain frequency. Precession vortex flowmeter accurately detects the frequency of the vortex through the sensor, and converts the vortex frequency into a flow signal according to a specific mathematical relationship. This principle makes the measurement result have a certain correlation with the density, pressure, temperature and other parameters of the fluid, so that more accurate flow measurement can be achieved.
2. Product features
High-precision measurement
It can provide accurate flow measurement data, and the error can be controlled within a smaller range within a wider flow range. This is crucial for accurate batching, metering and other operations in industrial production.
Applicable to a variety of media
It can be used to measure the flow of a variety of media such as gas and liquid. Whether it is steam, water, or various chemical fluids, as long as certain fluid conditions are met, they can be measured with Precession vortex flowmeter.
Simple structure and easy installation
Its internal structure is relatively simple, without complex mechanical moving parts, which reduces the possibility of failure. When installing, it can usually adopt common methods such as flange connection, which is easy to integrate with the pipeline system, and can be installed horizontally, vertically or tilted, and flexibly adjusted according to actual working conditions.
Low maintenance cost
Since there are no easily worn parts, there is no need to frequently replace parts during normal use, which greatly reduces the maintenance workload and cost.
3. Application areas
Petrochemical industry
In the process of petroleum refining and chemical product production, it is used to measure the flow of raw materials, finished products, and intermediate products to ensure accurate control and material balance of the production process.
Power industry
Measure steam flow and provide accurate flow data for the thermal system of power plants, which helps to improve power generation efficiency and energy management.
Water treatment industry
Monitoring water flow can play an important role in flow measurement, whether in water supply systems, sewage treatment plants or industrial circulating water systems.
Precession vortex flowmeter has become one of the important choices for modern industrial flow measurement with its high precision, wide applicability and low maintenance.
