Conventional vortex flowmeters measure vortex frequency by detecting fluctuations in flow velocity and pressure associated with vortex shedding, so there is a problem in that they are easily affected by flow turbulence. Furthermore, because conventional electromagnetic flowmeters need to accurately measure the absolute value of the weak potential difference between electrodes that appears in proportion to the flow rate, the effects of electrical noise and signal drift pose problems.

Compared to conventional vortex flowmeters, electromagnetic flowmeters can provide more stable measurements even when there is turbulence in the flow. This is because a vortex flowmeter detects fluctuations in flow velocity, pressure, drag, etc. at a certain point or on a straight line caused by vortex shedding, whereas an electromagnetic flowmeter detects the flow velocity over the entire cross section through which the flow passes. This is because a potential difference proportional to the integrated flow rate is detected, so the influence of flow disturbance is reduced.

When necessary, it can also be used as an electromagnetic flowmeter by averaging the fluctuating potential differences.

Japanese Patent Publication No. 56-22963. For a ring with a velocity method shape that uses a ring vortex, a vortex train is released behind it. FIG. 2 is a diagram schematically representing this. When such a vortex is released, the flow velocity fluctuates greatly inside the ring and behind it.

By measuring this fluctuating frequency, the flow velocity and flow rate passing through the pipeline can be determined, but for the reasons mentioned above, fluctuations in flow rate can be detected more stably. Fluctuations in the flow rate passing inside the vortex generator 3 are measured. Specifically, the difference between the potential difference occurring between electrodes 5 and 6 and the potential difference occurring between electrodes 4 and 7 is measured, and the fluctuation frequency of the difference is determined. Here, the reason for measuring the difference between these two pairs of electrodes is to reduce the influence of disturbances, and of course, the flow rate can also be determined just by measuring the frequency of fluctuation of the potential difference between the electrodes 5 and 6.
