What’s on the Pipeline – Flow Measurement for Marine and Shipbuilding
Posted onClamp-on ultrasonic flow meters were invented as a portable tool to allow marine engineers to measure the flow rates of various liquids on ships, and for the ship building and maintenance industry to do the same for commercial and military vessels, including submarines.
Turbine Flow Meters – how they work and what they are good for
Posted onTurbine flow meters are used to measure the velocity of liquids, gases and vapours in pipes, eg. hydrocarbons, water, chemicals, cryogenic liquids, air and industrial gases. In order to achieve a higher accuracy in measuring temperature, pressure, and fluid properties, turbine flow meters incorporate flow computer functionality.
One Man’s Filth is Another Man’s Fuel – new developments in landfill mining
Posted onBack in 2010 the Coalition Government set targets to create green technologies that lower carbon emissions and encourage an eco-friendly economy. This means a 300% increase in renewable energy production before the end of the decade, with over 50% of this renewable energy being bioenergy.
Flow Measurement Saves Miners Lives
Posted onUnderground mines can be dangerous places, where potentially harmful gases need to be monitored and controlled to reduce risks of explosions and allow standard mining operations to take place. So how can flow measurement be used in the mining industry and how does it reduce these risks?
Coriolis Mass Flow Meters
Posted onCoriolis mass flow meters measure the mass flow and density of liquids such as water, acids, caustic, chemicals and gases/vapors.
4 Types of Steam Flow Meters to Improve Plant Efficiency
Posted onSteam flow measurement can improve energy efficiency; therefore it has increased in interest. Before you start to measure steam flow rate it is beneficial to know the different options of flow metres to improve accuracy depending on its use.
How is Steam Flow Measured?
Posted onSteam flow measurement accounts for a large proportion of the flow measurement industry. There are seven different models of flow meters alone to measure steam flow.
Flow Measurement: Delivering Efficiency in the Power Industry
Posted onWithout flow measurement systems in place power station efficiency would be profoundly affected. Growing demand for energy means that power stations are constantly under pressure. With the need for reliable energy supplies continuing to rise, we delve into how flow measurement regulates power stations.
Flow measurement in food processing plants
Posted onFor the fast-paced food and beverage industry flow measurement plays an essential role. Worldwide demand on the industry is high and large volumes of liquids pass through food plants every day. Before reaching the shelves of supermarkets, food must reach the high standards set by the Food Standards Agency, which is responsible for food safety and hygiene across the UK.
