ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for measuring flow rate of media comprises at least one protruding section of a conduit disposed in an over-hanging arrangement, a force sensor measuring the force experienced by an over-hanging portion of the protruding section of the conduit, and a pressure gauge measuring pressure of the media moving through the conduit; wherein inertia force of the media as a measure of flow rate of the media is determined from inertia force portion of the force measured by the force sensor that is obtained by subtracting pressure portion of the force determined from the pressure measured by the pressure gauge from total value of the force measured by the force sensor.
