ABSTRACT:
A fluid flowmeter is disclosed herein which includes a fluid displacement member positioned in the fluid flow to substantially linearize the velocity profile associated therewith. In one form of the invention the pressure differential in the fluid existing across the fluid displacement member is advantageously exploited, and several embodiments thereof are disclosed. In another form of the invention the fluid displacement member is utilized to produce trailing vortices.
