Factors that Impact Accuracy, Conditioning and Flow Profile of a Thermal Mass Flowmeter
Factors that Impact Accuracy, Conditioning and Flow Profile of a Thermal Mass Flowmeter Written by: WILLKOMMEN BEI TRIGASDM Published by: TRIGASDM on 24/10/2018 The velocity profile is used to determine the flow rate of fluid flowing within a pipe. If the fully developed profile changes, the accuracy level of a thermal mass flowmeter decreases. Keep on reading to know the major application factors that affect the meter’s accuracy require consideration. One of these includes the upstream straight run distance, which changes the flow profile. In many cases, flow conditioning, a process of synthetically creating a more uniform flow profile, is necessary when upstream straight run lengths are not available to achieve a sufficiently developed flow pro...
