Flowmeter

A flowmeter is type of flow instrument that is used to measure the amount of liquid, gas, steam, powder, or a mixture of these substances moving through a pipe or conduit by measuring linear, non-linear, mass, or volumetric flow rates. The common types of flowmeters with industrial applications include: turbine flowmeters, electromagnetic flowmeters, positive-displacement flowmeters, pressure-based meters, variable-area flowmeter, fluid dynamic flowmeters, vortex flowmeters, anemometer, coriolis flowmeters, laser doppler flowmeters, sonar flowmeters, optical flowmeters, ultrasonic flowmeters and thermal mass flowmeters.
