ABSTRACT:
An energy loss detecting apparatus for measuring the rate of flow of the vapor phase of a bi-phase fluid flow, in the presence of an unknown quantity of the liquid phase, by separating the vapor phase from the liquid phase and producing a signal representing the vapor phase flow rate. The apparatus includes a hollow separator casing provided with a tube communicating with at least one of the inlet opening and outlet opening of the casing and facing thereinto. A wall seals the interior of the tube from the interior of the casing except at reduced diameter holes in the wall, the diameter of the holes being less than the inside diameter of the tubes at the wall. Energy loss due to a faulty steam trap is measurable by interposing the vapor flow rate measuring apparatus in a steam line between a steam consuming device and the steam trap.
