ABSTRACT:
A strain gage flowmeter in which the sensing element is an airfoil aligned with the flow of the fluid to be measured and the flow responsive thrust on the element is transverse to the flow. This type of flowmeter can measure accurately flow in which the ratio of maximum flow to minimum flow is 100 to 1. It also reduces wear from abrasive liquids or slurries.
