2.1.2 Swirl
flowmeter
The inlet pipe converts the axial flow of the incoming media into rotational movement. In the
center of this rotation a vortex core is formed which is forced into a secondary spiral-shaped
rotation by the backflow.
The frequency of this secondary rotation is proportional to the flow and, if the internal geometry
of the meter exhibits an optimum design, will be linear over a wide flow range. This frequency is
measured by a piezo sensor. The frequency signal from the flowmeter sensor, which is
proportional to the flow, undergoes downstream processing in the transmitter.
