Liquid Level Sensors

Liquid flow is generally measured by applying the Bernoulli's principle of fluid flow through a constriction.

 

LIQUID LEVEL

 

Liquid flow is generally measured by applying the Bernoulli's principle of fluid flow through a constriction. The quantity of fluid flow is computed by using the pressure drop measured. The fluid flow volume is proportional to square root of pressure difference at the two ends of the constriction. There are various types of fluid flow measurement devices being used in manufacturing automation such as Orifice plate, Turbine meter etc.

 

Orifice plate


 

Turbine meter

 

Turbine flow meter has an accuracy of 0.3%. It has a multi blade rotor mounted centrally in the pipe along which the flow is to be measured. Figure 8.37 shows the typical arrangement of the rotor and a magnetic pick up coil. The fluid flow rotates the rotor. Accordingly the magnetic pick up coil counts the number of magnetic pulses generated due to the distortion of magnetic field by the rotor blades. The angular velocity is proportional to the number of pulses and fluid flow is proportional to angular velocity.
