Measurement of the flow rate of the solid component of suspension-carrying flows using vertical segments of a pipeline

  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Abstract

A method is proposed for determining the mass flow rate of a suspensionbearing flow, using vertical segments of a pipe. A relation is established between the density and the true density and can be used to determine the flow rate of the solid component (suspended matter) of the suspensionbearing flow.
