Abstract: A method for ascertaining a physical parameter of a liquid, which has a gas charge using a measuring transducer having a measuring tube for conveying the medium. The measuring tube executes oscillations in bending oscillation mode. The method includes: exciting the measuring tube with an eigenfrequency of a bending oscillation mode—or f1-mode, ascertaining a suppressed excitation frequency, at which the oscillation amplitude of the measuring tube is minimum; identifying the frequency as the resonant frequency of the gas-charged liquid; ascertaining a density correction term as a function of the resonant frequency for correcting a preliminary density measured value and/or mass flow correction term as a function of the resonant frequency for correcting a preliminary mass flow rate measured value, and/or ascertaining the velocity of sound in the gas-charged liquid in the measuring tube as a function of the resonant frequency.

Abstract: A gas separator for separating a multiphase medium containing a gas and a liquid includes a tubular basic unit having a longitudinal axis, an intake for a gaseous medium, a liquid outlet and a gas outlet. The tubular basic unit has an intake region and a discharge region. The gas separator includes, between the intake region and the discharge region, a weir having a guiding surface, over which the medium can flow to form a shallow water region. The gas contained in the medium can escape from the medium in the shallow water region and be led away from the gas separator through the gas outlet. The disclosure is also directed to an apparatus for registering flow of at least one component of a multiphase medium.

Abstract: A measuring system comprises: a measuring transducer; transmitter electronics; at least one measuring tube; and at least one oscillation exciter. The transmitter electronics delivers a driver signal for the at least one oscillation exciter, and for feeding electrical, excitation power into the at least one oscillation exciter. The driver signal, has a sinusoidal signal component which corresponds to an instantaneous eigenfrequency, and in which the at least one measuring tube can execute, or executes, eigenoscillations about a resting position. The eigenoscillations have an oscillation node and in the region of the wanted, oscillatory length exactly one oscillatory antinode. The driver signal has, a sinusoidal signal component with a signal frequency, which deviates from each instantaneous eigenfrequency of each natural mode of oscillation of the at least one measuring tube, in each case, by more than 1 Hz and/or by more than 1% of said eigenfrequency.

Abstract: A magneto-inductive flow measuring device for measuring the flow of a flowable medium is described. The flow measuring device includes a measuring tube, a pair of coils, which are arranged opposite one another on the measuring tube and which are designed to produce an alternating magnetic field, which can be turned on and off, and which extends essentially transversely to the longitudinal axis of the measuring tube, as well as a pair of permanent magnets, which are arranged opposite one another on the measuring tube and which are designed to produce a permanent magnetic field, which extends essentially transversely to the longitudinal axis of the measuring tube. Moreover, the flow measuring device includes one or more pairs of measuring electrodes arranged opposite one another on the measuring tube, of which one pair of measuring electrodes is designed, in the case of turned off alternating magnetic field, to tap a measurement voltage induced by the permanent magnetic field, and an evaluation unit, which is designed, in the case of turned off alternating magnetic field, to monitor the measurement voltage induced by the permanent magnetic field, at least in the case of a predefined change of the measurement voltage, to turn on the alternating magnetic field and, by means of the alternating magnetic field, to determine a measured value for the flow.

Abstract: A method for detecting a foreign body in a flowable medium includes determining a first time curve of a first measured value using a first measuring device for determining a physical density of the medium. The method also includes determining a second time curve of a second measured value using a second measuring device for ascertaining a relative permittivity of the medium. A temporal correlation between the first curve and the second curve is determined, and pairs of measured values of the first measured value and the second measured value are detected. The method further includes checking whether the detected pairs of measured values within a predefined tolerance interval correspond to the correlation of at least one predefined function. If this is not the case, it is established that the foreign body is present in the medium.

Abstract: An arrangement includes a pipeline and a Coriolis volumetric flow meter for measuring a mass flow rate of a medium flowing through the pipeline. A first pressure sensor is attached at an inlet-side of the pipeline and a second pressure sensor is attached at an outlet-side of the pipeline, or wherein a differential pressure sensor is configured to detect a difference between an inlet-side and an outlet-side. The pressure sensors and/or the differential pressure sensor are configured to measure a media pressure and to determine, for each differential pressure, a volumetric flow velocity of the medium through the pipeline. A first monitoring sensor is attached at an inlet-side portion of the pipeline and a second monitoring sensor is attached at an outlet-side portion of the pipeline, wherein the monitoring sensors are configured to monitor a measurement variable different from the media pressure to identify a static media state.
