Spring Loaded Variable Area Flowmeter Working Principle

F

The spring loaded variable area owmeter (an extension of the variable area owmeter) uses a spring as the balancing force. This W
makes the owmeter independent of gravity, allowing it to be used in any plane, even upside-down.

However, in its fundamental con guration (as shown in Below Figure ), there is also a limitation: the range of movement is Categor
constrained by the linear range of the spring, and the limits of the spring deformation.

However, another important feature is also revealed: if the pass area (the area between the oat and the tube) increases at an
appropriate rate, then the di erential pressure across the spring loaded variable area owmeter can be directly proportional to
ow. so Spring Loaded Variable Area Flowmeters can measure the rate of ow with either oat movement (variable area) or with
Change in Pressure (if a Di erential pressure transmitter connected across it).
