 Introduction

Safety Custody
• DP Flowmeter is the most common flow technology Applications Transfer
to determine flow of fluid in industrial piping
• DP Flow technology uses primary element and
secondary element to calculate flow
• DP Flow measurement can be utilized to optimize
many aspects of a process Production
Efficiency
Principles of Fluid Flow in Pipes
Fluid Mechanics

Fluid Kinematics  The study of fluids in Fluid Dynamic  The study of the effects
motion (Rd) of forces due to fluid motion (Cd, Y1, DP,
Vena Contracta, Pressure Loss, Swirl)

The DP Flow Equation

Bernoulli's principle: v1 < v2 ; p1 > p2

Reynolds Number
• Dimensionless number that characterized fluid flow
• Determining the fluids dynamicity
