Introduction

The gas turbine flowmeter is a velocity-type flow instrument that accurately measures gas flow. It has advantages such as simple and lightweight structure, high measurement accuracy, good repeatability, wide measurement range, and convenient installation and maintenance. It is widely used in various gases in industries such as petroleum, chemical, metallurgy, aviation, scientific research, etc., including natural gas, city gas, propane, butane, air, nitrogen, and more. Due to its high accuracy and good repeatability, it is suitable for trade measurement and industrial process monitoring.

Working Principle

When the gas flow enters the flowmeter housing, under the action of the fluid, due to the angle between the turbine blades and the fluid flow direction, a torque is generated on the turbine. The turbine starts to rotate after overcoming the resistance torque and friction torque. When the torques reach equilibrium, the rotation speed stabilizes, and the turbine's rotational speed has a linear relationship with the flow rate. The magnets on the rotating signal disk periodically change the magnetic resistance of the sensor, thereby inducing a pulse signal at both ends of the sensor that is proportional to the volumetric flow rate of the fluid. This signal is amplified by a preamplifier and processed together with pressure and temperature signals detected by pressure and temperature sensors to directly display standard volumetric flow rate and total standard volume.

Instrument Selection

1. Selection Parameter Table

2. Sélection du débitmètre

2.1. Champ d'application

a. La plage de débit requise doit être inférieure au tableau des paramètres de sélection, et il y a des exigences strictes pour le débit de démarrage ;

b. Il ne doit pas y avoir de courtes interruptions ni de grandes fluctuations dans le fluide ;

c. Convient pour le gaz naturel, le gaz de ville, l'air comprimé, l'azote, etc.

2.2. Détermination des spécifications

Les utilisateurs doivent estimer le débit volumétrique maximal et minimal de la canalisation en fonction du volume de transmission de gaz, des plages possibles de température et de pression du milieu, et sélectionner correctement les spécifications du débitmètre. Lorsque les deux tailles de débitmètres peuvent couvrir le débit volumétrique minimal et maximal, un diamètre plus petit doit être choisi dans la limite de la perte de pression admissible. Calculer la plage de débit en conditions de fonctionnement en fonction de la plage de débit et de la pression du milieu dans des conditions standard.
