ABSTRACT:
In a flow meter of the type comprising a rotor consisting of a spindle 12 and bearing heads 9 and 11 cooperating with seats 5 and 6 to give support of the rotor, it has been found that the flow does not split evenly between the ends. In order to improve the flow performance, the flow characteristics of the two heads 9 and 11 are chosen to be different so as to have their transitions from laminar to turbulent flow occuring sequentially. It is preferred that the turbine means on the rotor be formed by angled passages through the bearing heads 9 and 11.
