ME 322: InstrumentationLecture 12
February 12, 2016Professor Miles Greiner
Flow rate devices, variable area, non-linear transfer function, standards, iterative method
(Needed a few more minutes to complete example)
Announcement/Reminders• HW 4 due now (please staple)• Monday – Holiday• Wednesday – HW 5 due – Review for Midterm
• Friday, Midterm
Regional Science Olympiad• Tests middle and high school teams on various science
topics and engineering abilities• Will be held 8 am to 4 pm Saturday, March 5th 2016
– On campus: SEM, PE and DMS• ME 322 students who participate in observing and judging
the events for at least two hours (as reported) will earn 1% extra credit.
• To sign up, contact Rebecca Fisher, [email protected], (775) 682-7741 – by Wednesday, February 24
• Details– You cannot get extra-credit in two courses for the same work. – If you sign-up but don’t show-up you will loose 1%!
Fluid Flow Rates
• Within a conduit cross section or “area region”– Pipe, open ditch or channel, ventilation duct, river, blood vessel,
bronchial tube (flow is not always steady)– V and r can vary over the cross section
• Volume Flow Rate, Q [m3/s, gal/min, cc/hour, Volume/time]– = (How to measure average over time Δ𝑡?)
• ; Average speed
• Mass Flow Rate, [kg/s, lbm/min, mass/time]– = = rAQ (How to measure average over time Δ𝑡?)

Many Flow Rate Measurement Devices
• Each relies on different phenomena • When choosing, consider
– Cost, Stability of calibration, Imprecision, Dynamic response, Flow resistance– The measurement device can affect the quantity being measured
Rotameters (variable area)Turbine
Vortex (Lab 11)
Laminar Flow
Coriolis
Variable-Area Meters
• Three varieties• All cause fluid to accelerate and pressure to decrease
– In the Pipe the pressure, diameter and area are denoted: P1, A, D– At Throat: P2, a, d (all smaller than pipe values)
• Diameter Ratio: b = d/D < 1– To use, measure pressure drop between pipe and throat using a pressure
transmitter (Reading)– Use standard geometries and pressure port locations for consistent results
• All three restrict the pipe and so reduce flow rate compared to no device
Venturi Tube Nozzle Orifice Plate
Venturi Tube
• Insert between pipe sections• Convergent Entrance: smoothly accelerates the flow
– reduces pressure• Diverging outlet (diffuser) decelerates the flow gradually,
– avoiding recirculating zones, and increases (recovers) pressure • Reading DP increases as b = d/D decreases• Smallest flow restriction of the three variable-area meters
– But most expensive
Orifice Plate
• Does not increase pipe length as much as Venturi• Rapid flow convergence forms a very small “vena contracta”
through which all the fluid must pass• No diffuser:
– flow “separates” from wall forming a turbulent recirculating zone that causes more drag on the fluid than a long, gradual diffuser
• Least expensive of the three but has a the largest flow restriction (permanent pressure drop)
Vena contracta
Nozzles
• Permanent pressure drop, cost and size are all between the values for Ventrui tubes and orifice plates.

• Mass Conservation: – r1A1V1 = r2A2V2 – where V1 and V2 are average speeds
• For r1 r2 (incompressible, liquid, low speed gas)– V1 = V2(A2 /A1) = V2[(pd2/4) /(pD2/4)] = V2(d/D)2 = V2b2

Momentum Conservation: Bernoulli
• Incompressible, inviscid, steady • A differential pressure gage at z = 0 will measure
– = LHS (Reading)– Lines must be filled with same fluid as flowing in pipe

Ideal (inviscid) Transfer Function
• : Non-linear (like Pitot probe)– Sensitivity (slope) increases with – Input resolution is smaller (better) at large than at small
values • Better for measuring large ’s than for small ones

How to use the gage?
• Invert the transfer function: • Get: • C = Discharge Coefficient – Effect of viscosity inside tubes is not always negligible– C = fn(ReD, b = d/D, exact geometry and port locations)
• Problem: Need to know to find , so iterate– Assume C ~ 1, find , then Re, then C, then check…
Discharge Coefficient Data from Text
• Nozzle: page 344, Eqn. 10.10– C = 0.9975 – 0.00653 (see restrictions in Text)
• Orifice: page 349, Eqn. 10.13– C = 0.5959 + 0.0312b2.1 - 0.184b8+ (0.3 < b < 0.7)
Example: Problem 10.15, page 384• A square-edge orifice meter with corner taps is used
to measure water flow in a 25.5-cm-diameter ID pipe. The diameter of the orifice is 15 cm. Calculate the water flow rate if the pressure drop across the orifice is 14 kPa. The water temperature is 10°C.
• Solution: Identify, then Do• ID–What type of meter?–What fluid?– Given pressure drop, find flow rate
Solution Equations
• b = d/D• C = 0.5959 + 0.0312b2.1 - 0.184b8+ (0.3 < b < 0.7)
