Measurement of flow is a crucial parameter in many different processes, whether it is of a liquid or gas. It is important to ascertain that the right fluid is at the right place at the right time in ...

A peak flow meter is a handheld device that measures airflow rate and can help those with respiratory conditions like asthma ...

The main application of the rotameter flow meter is to measure the flowrate of liquids and gases. It is composed of a plastic, metal or glass tube and float. The float response to flowrate changes is ...

The field of polymer science is characterized by a wide range of quantitative and qualitative approaches to materials analysis, along with a diverse array of intricate terminology, rendering it a ...

Panametrics has developed several ultrasonic, clamp-on flow meters for measuring fluid flow. These clamp-on meters can be ...

A magnetic flow meter relies on Faraday's Law of Induction to measure the flow of a fluid. Magnets outside the pipe create a magnetic field. Electrodes are located perpendicular to the magnets. A ...

The importance of good flow of hot oil in a hot oil heating system is often overlooked at hot-mix asphalt (HMA) plants. But good flow is essential to high heating efficiency and long life of the ...

For seven weeks, BP has insisted that measuring exactly how much oil is gushing into the Gulf of Mexico is a daunting -- perhaps impossible -- task. The depth of the well, and the volume of natural ...

Geologists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed a technique that allows scientists to see how fast rivers flowed on Mars billions of years ago and currently do on Titan, ...
