ABSTRACT:
A flow meter for determining the flow rate of a stream of material such as a fluid stream or a stream of particles comprising a guide for guiding the material to be measured along a predetermined path and having an entry end and an exit end. A transducer is operatively associated with the exit end of the guide and includes a mechanical column connected between a load cell and the exit end of the guide means. The load cell produces an electrical output signal proportional to the flow rate of the material on the guide.
