In this article, we will discuss the fluids in the sugar industry and cogeneration plants. The various fluid types are cane juice, imbibition water, syrup, massecuite, molasses, return condensate, boiler feedwater, main steam, exhaust steam, and so on… The selection of the flow meter is a very important aspect because there are a variety of …

Introduction A rotameter measures the flow of liquids, gases and steam by using a float inside a conical tube. The rotameter principle is one of the oldest and most mature principles in flow measurement. The space between the tube and the float is larger at the top to allow more flow through the meter. As …
Rotameter is a variable area flow meter, works for measuring the flow of low viscous fluid at high velocity. A variable-area flowmeter is one where the fluid must pass through a restriction whose area increases with flow rate. Principle: It works on the principle of upthrust force exerted by fluid and exerted by gravity. The flow …
