Ultrasonic flow meter with reduced noise

摘要

The flow rate of a fluid can be measured using an ultrasonic flow meter according to the present invention with a higher measuring accuracy and a lower cost. The feature of the invention consists in an ultrasonic flow meter comprising a measurement tube for flowing a fluid to be subjected to measurement, a first oscillator fitted to the outer circumference of the measurement tube, a second oscillator fitted to the outer circumference of the measurement tube at a predetermined interval along the flow of the fluid from the first oscillator and an acoustic filter fitted to the measurement tube for cutting high frequency range of the oscillating wave propagating through the oscillating tube, in which the flow rate of a fluid is measured based on a time difference between a time required when the ultrasonic wave from the upstream oscillator reaches the downstream oscillator and another time required when the ultrasonic wave from the downstream oscillator reaches the upstream oscillator.
