| 摘要 |
The invention relates to a density meter for slurry which is transported through a pipe, the density meter comprising : - a pipe part; - flexible pipe couplings arranged on either end of the pipe part for coupling the pipe part to a feed pipe and a discharge pipe, which pipe couplings impart to the pipe part at least one degree of freedom relative to the feed pipe and the discharge pipe; - a force sensor for measuring a force in the direction of the at least one degree of freedom between the pipe part and a fixed point, such as a floor; - an accelerometer arranged on the pipe part for measuring the accelerations of the pipe part in the direction of the at least one degree of freedom; and - computing means for computing the density of the slurry in the pipe part on the basis of the volume of the pipe part, the force measured by the force sensor and the acceleration measured by the accelerometer. |
