What are the sizes corresponding to different diameters of vortex flowmeters?

Vortex flowmeters of different diameters correspond to different sizes, and products produced by different manufacturers may have differences in specific dimensions. Taking the common DN25 caliber as an example, its length is generally around 150mm and the outer diameter is about 32mm. The DN50 caliber vortex flow meter has a length of about 200mm and an outer diameter of about 57mm. For DN80 caliber, the length is usually around 250mm and the outer diameter is about 89mm. For DN100 caliber, the length is about 300mm and the outer diameter is about 108mm. When the caliber increases to DN150, the length is approximately 400mm and the outer diameter is about 159mm. The length of a DN200 caliber vortex flowmeter is generally around 500mm and the outer diameter is about 219mm. These dimensional data are only approximate ranges. In practical applications, when selecting a vortex flowmeter, accurate dimensional information should be obtained based on the product manual and specification parameter table provided by the specific manufacturer to ensure correct installation and use.

2. After the installation of the flowmeter is completed, how should the front and rear dimensions be determined? After the installation of the flowmeter is completed, the determination of its front and rear dimensions needs to be based on various factors. Generally speaking, when answering questions, the type of flow meter should be considered, and different types have different requirements for the length of the front and rear straight pipe sections. For orifice flow meters, to ensure measurement accuracy, the length of the upstream straight pipe section

is usually required to be at least 10 times the diameter of the pipeline, and the length of the downstream straight pipe section is about 5 times the diameter of the pipeline. This is because the orifice flowmeter calculates the flow rate by measuring the pressure difference generated when the fluid flows through the throttling element. A sufficiently long straight pipe section upstream can allow the fluid to fully develop and stabilize, while a downstream straight pipe section can reduce the impact of flow disorder caused by throttling and smoothing on the measurement. Vortex flowmeter generally requires 15 to 20 times the diameter of the pipeline in the upstream straight section, and about 5 times the diameter of the pipeline in the downstream straight section. The vortex flowmeter operates based on the Karman vortex principle. A stable flow state upstream ensures the stable generation of vortices, while a suitable length downstream can avoid interference from subsequent pipeline components during measurement. In addition, bends, valves, and other fittings in the pipeline can also affect the flow state. If there are such fittings near the installation location of the flowmeter, the length of the straight pipe section may need to be appropriately increased to eliminate the interference of the fittings on the fluid and ensure the accurate measurement of flow by the flowmeter.
