68 F
While calculating the size of a flow meter, the value of reference temperature is usually assumed to be
20 C
How many different styles of coriolis flow meters are used to measure flow
2
Coriolis flow meters are installed to measure volumetric flow
false
the region between laminar and turbulent flow is called
transition
cylindrical length of pipe with reducing diameter which causes a restriction in the flow, followed by an increasing diameter to produce a gradual pressure recovery
venturi
if the value of reynolds number is 3000
turbulent flow
metric standard unit for volume flow rate measurement
meter cube/day
Vortex shedding frequency is directly proportional to the velocity of the fluid in the pipe and to volumetric flow rate
True
The expansion factor Y is an empirical expression used to correct the pressure drop that a compressible fluid experience when it passes through the orifices bore
False
cylindrical section of pipe with a reducing diameter which causes a restriction in the flow
Nozzle
The beta ration is defined as the ratio of the bore to the inner diameter of the pipe
True
flow meter consists of a rotor mounted coaxially in the centre of the meter body
Turbine flow meter
Measures the frequency of twisters to determine flow velocity
vortex flow meters
