The flow detection element of a metal float flowmeter is composed of a vertically tapered tube that expands from bottom to top and a float that moves up and down along the axis of the tapered tube.
summary:Metal float flowmeterThe flow detection element is composed of a vertical conical tube that expands from bottom to top and a float that moves up and down along the axis of the conical tube.
Working Principle:When the fluid being tested passes through the spinal canal and the annular gap formed by the float from bottom to top, a differential pressure is generated at the upper and lower ends of the float, creating a force for the float to rise. When the upward force acting on the float is greater than the weight of the float immersed in the fluid, the float rises, and the annular gap area increases accordingly. The fluid flow velocity at the annular gap immediately decreases, and the differential pressure between the upper and lower ends of the float decreases. The upward force acting on the float also decreases until the upward force equals the weight of the float immersed in the fluid, and the float stabilizes at a certain height. There is a corresponding relationship between the height of the float in the spinal canal and the flow rate it passes through.
