ABSTRACT:
A vortex flowmeter comprises a bank of filter sets (12) each for receiving a vortex signal produced according to the flow rate of a fluid to be measured, a waveform shaping circuit (13) for shaping an output of a selected one of the filter sets, a filter set switch decision circuit (14) for switching from one filter set to another by measuring the vortex frequency from an output of the waveform shaping circuit, and a switch circuit (15) responsive to a decision made by the filter set switch decision circuit to switch the filter set to thereby remove noise and beat components contained in the vortex signal.
