Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a technique of switching a measurement method between a pulse Doppler method and a transit time method using an ultrasonic flowmeter capable of measuring flow in both the pulse Doppler method and the transit time method. Background technique
[0002] The pulse Doppler method and the transit time method are known ultrasonic flow measurement methods.
[0003] Flow measurement in the pulsed Doppler method employs Doppler frequency shift, in which ultrasonic pulses are transmitted to the fluid to be measured, and the frequency of the ultrasonic echoes reflected by inclusions such as air bubbles present in the fluid is changed with A quantity proportional to flow rate. Compared with the through-time method, the pulse Doppler method is characterized by high accuracy, quick response, excellent anti-bubble characteristics, and high accuracy even in skewed flow by providing multi-level measurement lines . However, there are p...
