ABSTRACT:
A vortex flow meter produces Karman's vortices in a fluid to be measured and a piezoelectric sensor develops a vortex signal therefrom which is proportional to the flow velocity of the fluid. The output signal of the sensor is applied to a charge amplifier and a low pass filter coupled thereto which functions to a predetermined signal amplitude for limiting low and high frequency noise and stabilizing the gain of the system within the vortex frequency measuring range. The output signal is converted by a logic circuit to a pulse signal of vortex frequency and then converted to a DC signal for transmission to an indicator or a receiver.
