Print on Demand. In this insightful book, the author presents a comprehensive exploration of vortex shedding flow meters and their extraordinary performance at high flow velocities. Vortex shedding meters have emerged as a revolutionary tool for measuring fluid flow rates with unmatched precision and a wide-ranging utility. Throughout history, engineers have relied on pressure-based meters, but the limitations of these traditional methods have become apparent. The author demonstrates how vortex shedding meters have overcome these challenges, opening new possibilities for flow measurement in demanding applications. Delving into the complexities of this advanced technology, the book meticulously investigates the design and operation of vortex shedding flow meters. The author analyzes the various vane shapes, suspension designs, and sensing mechanisms employed in these meters, illuminating the factors that influence their performance and accuracy. The text is enriched with experimental data and elucidating illustrations, providing a practical foundation for understanding the intricacies of vortex shedding flow meters. Beyond the technical aspects, the author explores the broader implications of this technology, highlighting its significance in diverse fields including rocket engine propulsion and cryogenic temperature environments. The book culminates in a profound understanding of the transformative role vortex shedding flow meters have played in advancing flow measurement capabilities, paving the way for more efficient and reliable systems in the years to come. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…

Learn how vortex shedding flowmeters measure very high flow rates with precision in demanding duct environments. This technical report analyzes meter designs, sensing methods, and test results that enable accurate flow measurements in rocket engine ducts and similar high-velocity systems.
Based on water and air tests, the study demonstrates that carefully designed shedding vanes can provide linear, reliable readings without extensive duct straightening or conditioning. It covers different vane shapes, mounting configurations, and sensing approaches, with practical guidance drawn from simulated high-speed conditions.
- Details on meter design options, including vane shape and cantilevered configurations
- Results showing frequency output proportional to flow up to high velocities
- Evaluation of sensing methods and mounting stability in harsh environments
- Insights into performance across water and air test facilities simulating rocket duct conditions
Ideal for engineers and researchers working with high-velocity flow measurement in propulsion or cryogenic contexts.

All Forgotten Books titles are printed on demand. The moment an order is submitted, it is automatically transmitted to our distributor and then forwarded to the printer, where it enters production. This process begins within minutes and is entirely automated.
A cancellation, however, is a manual, multi-step request that must pass through several systems. By the time such a request reaches the appropriate stage, the book has almost always been printed, packed, or already dispatched, which makes cancellation impossible.
For this reason, we kindly ask that you double-check the title, edition, and your shipping details before placing an order.
If you change your mind after ordering, you are welcome to return the book once it arrives, and a refund will be issued in accordance with AbeBooks’ return policy.
Please also make sure your address is correct before ordering as we will no be able to intervene and make changes before the book is shipped.
We can provide digital samples for all our print books ahead, so don't hesitate to reach out.
