What is the purpose of rectification in a balanced flow meter?

Project Overview

In the field of flow measurement, the balance flow meter is a high-precision and high-reliability measurement tool. Its internal structure and functional design are designed to improve the accuracy and stability of measurement. Rectification, in short, is to eliminate or weaken the unstable factors in fluid flow to make the fluid flow more stable and uniform. The mechanism of rectification:

1. Eliminate turbulence: When fluid flows in a pipeline, turbulence is easily generated due to factors such as the shape of the pipeline and uneven fluid velocity distribution. Turbulence not only affects the accuracy of flow measurements but can also cause damage to the flow meter itself. Through its unique blade and grid structure, the rectifier can effectively eliminate turbulence in the fluid and make the fluid flow smoother.

2. Reduce vortices: Swirls are prone to occur at pipeline turns or areas where the fluid velocity changes greatly. The vortex not only affects the stability of the fluid flow, but also creates additional resistance to the flow meter. Through its well-designed blade and grid structure, the rectifier can reduce the vortex in the fluid and reduce the impact on the flow meter.

3. Uniform velocity distribution: The rectifier can form a stable laminar flow state when the fluid passes through, thereby making the fluid velocity distribution more uniform. This is essential to improve the accuracy of flow measurements. In short, the role of balancing the rectification function of the flow meter cannot be ignored. By optimizing the design of the rectifier, the measurement accuracy and stability of the balanced flow meter can be further improved, maintenance costs can be reduced, and the service life can be extended.
