NON-INTRUSIVE FLOW MEASUREMENT AND DETECTION SYSTEM

摘要

A non-intrusive flow measurement and detection device is provided. The device includes a first transducer; a second transducer; and detection/reporting circuitry coupled to the first and second transducers. The non-intrusive flow measurement and detection device is mounted to a pipe or conduit with the first and second transducers in contact with an outer surface of the pipe or conduit. The first transducer detects and measures vibration in the pipe or conduit in response to gas or liquid flowing through the pipe or conduit. The second transducer detects and measures sound in the pipe or conduit in response to gas or liquid flowing through the pipe or conduit. The detection/reporting circuitry compares the measured flow and flow rate determined by the first and second transducers with established limits to determine if the flow and flow rate is within the established limits.

1. A non-intrusive flow measurement and detection device comprising:
a transducer; and detection/reporting circuitry coupled to the transducer, wherein:
the non-intrusive flow measurement and detection device is mounted to a pipe or conduit with the transducer in contact with an outer surface of the pipe or conduit;the transducer determines the presence of flow of a gas or liquid through the pipe or conduit and measures the flow rate; andthe detection/reporting circuitry compares the measured flow rate with established limits to determine if the flow rate is within the established limits.
