Flow through a Venturi Meter
In a venturi, 0.95 < C < 0.98
Advantage:
Pressure recovery
Uses little power

Shorter and cheaper than venturi
But larger pressure drop.
Thus, more power lost in operating.

Flow Through an Orifice Meter
-Cheapest and Simplest-But biggest pressure drop and power lost (C~0.6 - 0.7)
-Side Note:
Pressure drop caused by friction and turbulence of shear

Vortex meters operate on the principle that when a non-streamlined
object is placed in the middle of a flow stream, vortices are shed
alternately downstream of the object. The frequency of the vortex
shedding is directly proportional to the velocity of the liquidflowing in the pipeline.

Based upon Faradays Law
The fluid is the conductor, must be electrically conductive.
E=BDVx10-8
E=voltage, volts
B=magnetic flux density, gauss
D= length of the conductor, cm
V=velocity of the conductor, cm/sec
