The Coriolis measuring principle refers to the effect that a moving mass has on a body in a rotating frame of reference. The moving mass exerts an apparent force on the body, causing a deformation. This force is called the Coriolis force. It does not act directly on the body but on the motion of the body. This principle is used in Coriolis flow meters.
Operation
A Coriolis flow meter consists of two parallel tubes that are made to oscillate using a magnet. These oscillations are recorded by sensors fitted at the inlet and outlet of each tube. In a no-flow state, the oscillations are synchronized, since no mass exerts any force on the tubes. On the other hand, any fluid, or gas flowing through the tubes generates Coriolis forces, causing the tubes to twist in proportion to the mass flow rate of the medium.
U-Tube Type
These flow meters are comprised of two tubes arranged in the shape of the letter 'U', a magnet and coil assembly, and sensors at the inlet and outlet of the tubes. Coriolis forces exerted by the flow medium are used to determine the mass flow rate and density of the medium.
