Abstract
The transducer most widely used for vibration measurement is the piezoelectric accelerometer. This application has been explored for flow rate measurement, since some studies have verified the narrow correlation between ratio of flow and vibration. The technique consists of measure the vibration induced by the flow in the pipeline, has been considered as promising, in the sense of enabling the development of a sensor that presents advantageous characteristics such as non-intrusiveness, non-invasiveness and reduced cost. This paper shows the method of measurement of flow in pipe based on vibration caused by transit of water, without the need of flow interruption or opening of pipe for installation of water meters. Further are present experimental measurements and metrological validation in laboratory accredited for calibration of flow meters.
