Sinopsis
In this insightful book, the author presents a comprehensive exploration of vortex shedding flow meters and their extraordinary performance at high flow velocities. Vortex shedding meters have emerged as a revolutionary tool for measuring fluid flow rates with unmatched precision and a wide-ranging utility. Throughout history, engineers have relied on pressure-based meters, but the limitations of these traditional methods have become apparent. The author demonstrates how vortex shedding meters have overcome these challenges, opening new possibilities for flow measurement in demanding applications. Delving into the complexities of this advanced technology, the book meticulously investigates the design and operation of vortex shedding flow meters. The author analyzes the various vane shapes, suspension designs, and sensing mechanisms employed in these meters, illuminating the factors that influence their performance and accuracy. The text is enriched with experimental data and elucidating illustrations, providing a practical foundation for understanding the intricacies of vortex shedding flow meters. Beyond the technical aspects, the author explores the broader implications of this technology, highlighting its significance in diverse fields including rocket engine propulsion and cryogenic temperature environments. The book culminates in a profound understanding of the transformative role vortex shedding flow meters have played in advancing flow measurement capabilities, paving the way for more efficient and reliable systems in the years to come.

Excerpt from Vortex Shedding Flow Meter Performance at High Flow Velocities
Fuel and liquid oxygen (lox) flows in rocket engine ducts have been measured in the past using venturi flowmeters and more recently on the space shuttle main engine (ssme) by turbine meters. The ducts are kept as short as possible with the result that few straight sections of any length are available to install meters. Both turbine meter and venturi meter installations require extensive modification of the duct if added later. The turbine meter also has the disadvantage of introducing moving parts into the duct. The vortex shedding flowmeter was examined in this work as an alternative to these meters for ssme duct measurements.
Conventional flowmeter installations call for 10 to 20 diameters of straight pipe preceding a flowmeter of any kind and 2 to M diameters of straight pipe after it If flow conditioning is introduced upstream of the meter, 6 to 10 diameters of straight pipe between the conditioner and the flow meter are still recommended. On the ssme, a straight duct section exceeding 10 diameters is a luxury. Few if any of the ducts will permit a flowmeter installation following recommended practice.
