The characteristics of the vibration signal are that the vibration characteristics occurring in the same environment are always the same depending on the flow rate and the flow rate of the fluid in the pipe 210 through which the fluid flows.

Accordingly, in one embodiment of the present invention, attention is paid to the point that the vibration characteristics generated in the same environment of the fluid flow rate and the flow rate state are always the same, and the vibration signal output by the acceleration sensor unit 110 is characterized, It can be used as a measurement factor. In one embodiment of the present invention, the flow measurement factor is referred to as a vibration characteristic factor.

Hereinafter, a process of deriving the vibration characteristic factor to determine the flow velocity and flow state of the fluid will be described.

The signal processing unit 120 indexes the vibration signal to derive a vibration characteristic factor from the vibration signal.

The signal processing unit 120 may derive the vibration characteristic factor from the vibration signal by applying a regression analysis that linearizes the vibration characteristic of the vibration signal when the vibration signal is indexed.

That is, the signal processing unit 120 extracts a sound quality factor from the vibration signal according to the indexing process, and applies a regression analysis that linearizes the vibration characteristic of the vibration signal based on the extracted sound quality factor, The vibration characteristic factor can be derived from the signal.

At this time, the flow rate measuring device may derive the vibration characteristic factor from the vibration signal by applying a regression analysis that linearizes the vibration characteristic of the vibration signal when the vibration signal is indexed.

Here, the vibration characteristic factor may include at least one of a first factor indicating the magnitude of the vibration, a second factor indicating the frequency distribution characteristic of the vibration, and a third factor representing the time characteristic of the vibration.

The first factor may then be used to determine the flow rate state of the fluid, and the second and third factors may then be used to determine the flow rate state of the fluid.

Next, in step 630, the flow measuring device determines the flow rate and the flow rate state of the fluid using the vibration characteristic factor.

That is, the flow rate measuring device may determine the flow rate state of the fluid by using the first factor, and may determine the flow rate state of the fluid by using the second factor and the third factor.

Next, in step 640, the flow measuring device displays the result of the determination of the flow rate and the flow rate of the fluid.

Hereinafter, a process of performing discrimination analysis to determine a flow rate state according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

Discriminant analysis is a method of finding a criterion that can be used to determine which parent group has been extracted from the information contained in two or more parent groups.

1. Discriminant variable

It is a variable to judge which group belongs, and among the independent variables, it has high discriminative power. In selecting the discriminant variable, the correlation with other independent variables other than the discriminatory contribution can be considered. It is possible to construct an effective discriminant function by selecting one of the two independent variables as a discriminator variable and selecting an independent variable having a low correlation with the two independent variables.

2. The discriminant function

It is a linear combination of the discriminant variables and is derived by the smaller of the number of groups - 1 and the number of independent variables. It is possible to increase the prediction ability to accurately classify the group.

In order to use the discriminant analysis, it is necessary to know which group belongs to each group, to measure the variables when the group is already known, and to make a discrimination formula that can best distinguish each group using these variables . In addition, by using the discriminant function, it is possible to measure the discrimination power of how well each group is discriminated and predict which group to classify.

3. Discrimination Score

The discriminant score is derived by assigning the discriminant variables to the discriminant function to determine which group belongs to which group.

4. Size of the sample

The size of the whole sample should be at least three times the number of independent variables.

The steps of the discrimination analysis will be described below.

1. Derive an independent variable that can contribute to identifying the group to which the case belongs.

2. Derive a linear function, or discriminant function, of the independent variables that serve as a basis for classifying groups. The discriminant function is expressed by the following equation (1).

[Equation 1]

Z = β 0 + β 1 X 1 + β 2 X 2 + ... + β P X P

Where Z is the discriminant score, β0 is the discriminant constant, X is the discriminant variable, and βp is the discriminant coefficient.

3. Identify the accuracy of classification by the derived discriminant function.

4. Use the discriminant function to predict the group to which the new case belongs.
