VORTEX ELECTROMAGNETIC CONVERTER OF LIQUID METAL FLOW RATE Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC G01F1/32 G01F1/58 

FIELD: measuring technique.

SUBSTANCE: converter comprises pipe section with nonmagnetic conducting wall and rod that generates vortex in the flow and whose axis is perpendicular to the axis of the pipe. The magnet mounted outside of the pipe generates magnetic field downstream of the rod. The component of the magnetic induction of the magnetic field is parallel to the axis of the rod. The electrodes of the sensor of the converter is welded to the surface of the pipe. According to the second version, two indicating electrodes are mounted in the cross-sections of the pipe that are located at a given distance one from the other.

EFFECT: enhanced precision.
