A Study on the Flow Field Simulation of Insertion Flow Sensor in Large Diameter Pipeline

Article Preview

Abstract:

The study is to employ the analysis method of CFD simulation, when putting the insertion flow sensor in large-diameter pipe, to analyse the characteristics of flow field distribution of the insertion flow sensor in detail. It reveals the flow field distribution at the position of average flowrate and the vortex shedding around insertion flow sensor, which provides an important basis for design of the insertion flow sensor with high performance.
