    摘要: Described is a device for measuring fluid density. The device is a flow meter including a housing with one side configured to mount to a flow conduit and define an outlet flow orifice near one end of the housing. The other side defines an inlet flow orifice near another end of the housing. The housing permits fluid to be introduced into the inlet flow orifice, flow through a flow cavity, and pass from the outlet flow orifice. The flow meter also includes a sensor head near the outlet flow orifice. The sensor head vibrates at a frequency upon introduction of electrical power while in contact with a fluid, detects the vibration frequency of the sensor head, and transmits the detected vibration frequency, which is associated with a density of the fluid. A system and method for determining a fluid density of a fluid using the described device is also disclosed.

    摘要: A gravitometer incorporating two ferromagnetic cantilevered vanes simultaneously vibrated by a spaced ferromagnetic driver at their respective same or different frequencies. The driver provides a field reversal which produces a double frequency at two respective piezoelectric crystal pickups fixed to the respective vanes. Two respective divide-by-two dividers cause the driver to produce a synchronous field drive so that the apparatus forms two combined closed loop electromechanical oscillators, the loops having amplifiers with respective gains adequate to sustain vibrations of both vanes continuously.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to resonating detection devices in which the sample flows through a conduit having a section in which the conduit is grouped or concentrated with the point of maximum movement. An exemplary device includes a primary conduit, at least one first flex section, at least one second flex section and at least one analysis section. The primary conduit cooperates with an energizer for inducing vibration and a programmed calculator for determining a resonant frequency to calculate a mass related parameter of the solution carried therein.

    摘要: The device serves to measure the density of a gas, in particular of the insulating gas of a gas-insulated electrical installation. It contains two resonators (11, 12) each comprising a piezoelectric crystal (14, 15) and each comprising two electrodes applied to the crystal. A first (11) of the two resonators (11, 12) is mounted in a first chamber (5) containing the gas to be measured, whereas a second (12) is mounted in a second chamber (6) sealed with respect to the gas.Despite small dimensions and despite simple and robust construction, this device is intended to have a high measurement precision over a long period of time.This is achieved by drawing the two resonators (11, 12) from a multiplicity of similar resonators manufactured by mass production and not subjected to a frequency alignment. The first resonator (11) is unaltered with respect to the manufacture in mass production. The second resonator (12) is likewise unaltered with respect to the manufacture in mass production and, under vacuum and with equality of temperature, it has the same resonance frequency as the first resonator (11) within a specified frequency tolerance. The second resonator (12) may, however, also be modified, by altering its electrodes (18, 19), in such a way that, under vacuum and with equality of temperature, it has the same resonance frequency as the first resonator (11) within the specified frequency tolerance.

    摘要: Apparatus for producing a digital or analog output directly proportional to the ratio of the densities of two gases at the same temperature and pressure. The ratio is usually that of the density of a gas of interest to the density of air. One outstanding feature of this instrument resides in the use of an automatic DC current control for gas and air vibrating ferromagnetic vanes which unexpectedly provides temperature compensation. The gas vane is immersed in the gas. The air vane is immersed in air. Gas and air piezoelectrical crystals for the respective gas and air vanes produce output signals of frequencies corresponding to the vibrational frequencies of the respective gas and air vanes. In combination with other gear, phase lock loops adapted for frequency multiplication are employed and advantageously improve accuracy. Substantial economy is surprisingly achieved in solving the equation. Still another feature resides in the equipment saving involved in time sharing two long counters.It is striking that the gravity of a fluid has been found to be directly proportional to either one of the following two expressions:(T.sub.g - T.sub.go) (f.sub.a - f.sub.ao ')And ##EQU1## WHERE T.sub.go is a constant, T.sub.ao is a constant, f.sub.ao is a constant, T.sub.ao is a constant, T.sub.g is the sample fluid vane period, T.sub.a is the reference (e.g. air) vane period, f.sub.a is the reciprocal of T.sub.a, and f.sub.ao ' is a constant.

    摘要: A density sensor comprises a cavity arranged to receive the gas whose density is to be sensed. The cavity is divided into two chambers by a flexibly mounted diaphragm. A piezoelectric excitation device at one end of the cavity is used to excite the gas in the cavity into resonant vibration in a mode having an anti-node at the diaphragm, which causes the diaphragm to vibrate with the gas. Another piezoelectric device senses the vibration, whose frequency is a function of the known mass of the diaphragm and the density and speed of sound in the gas. This last parameter can be sensed by exciting the gas in the cavity into resonant vibration in a second mode having a node at the diaphragm, so that the diaphragm does not take part in the vibration. Alternatively, it can be sensed by providing a second cavity, also arranged to receive the gas but not having a diaphragm, and resonantly vibrating the gas in the second cavity.
