ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for measuring the momentum flow rate of fluid comprises a first conduit extending from one extremity thereof connected to an inlet leg and secured to a support, a second conduit extending from one extremity thereof connected to an outlet leg and secured to a support, and a coupling connecting other extremities of the first and second conduits to one another in an arrangement allowing relative displacement therebetween, wherein a force gauge measures force tending to create the relative displacement between the other extremities of the first and second conduits as a measure of flow rate of fluid moving through a flow passage provided by the combination of the first and second conduits connected to one another by the coupling.
