MULTIPLE FLOW CONDUIT FLOWMETER

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a multiple flow conduit flowmeter (200).SOLUTION: The multiple flow conduit flowmeter (200) includes a first flow conduit (201) conducting a first flow stream and a pair of first pickoff sensors (215 and 215') affixed to the first flow conduit (201). The multiple flow conduit flowmeter (200) further includes at least one additional flow conduit (202) conducting at least one additional flow stream and at least one pair of additional pickoff sensors (216 and 216') affixed to the at least one additional flow conduit (202). The at least one additional flow stream is independent of the first flow stream. The multiple flow conduit flowmeter (200) further includes a common driver (220) configured to vibrate both the first flow conduit (201) and the at least one additional flow conduit (202) in order to generate a first vibrational response and at least one additional vibrational response.
