INFLUENCE OF AFTER BODY SHAPE ANGLE OF TRAPEZOIDAL BLUFF BODY ON MEASURED SIGNAL PARAMETERS
Keywords:
Bluff body, Strouhal number, Blockage ratioAbstract
In this paper the problem of vortex flow meter optimization is considered. The experimental study of the influence of after body angle along with blockage ratio for the trapezoidal bluff body is presented. Linearity of Strouhal’s number, quality of signal based on the standard deviation of signal period was applied as optimization criteria. The influence of after body angle on the optimization of meter was confirmed during the tests. Best trapezoidal bluff body geometry was proposed based on the Linearity of Strouhal's number.
