Abstract
The current status of available work regarding the pressure effect on Coriolis mass flowmeters is reviewed, which shows significant improvement in the latest generation of Coriolis flowmeters. A theoretical method using the linear damping model is proposed to understand the pressure effect. This new method applied to Coriolis flow sensors provides intuitive insight into the flow-generated signal by studying undamped natural frequencies and mode shapes. Most importantly this method can be used to model virtually any shape and configuration of flow sensors as found in the practical design. It is found that when the pressure changes it alters the superimposed contribution and the mass flow measurement can deviate from the reference condition. Experimental results from both low and high pressure flow tests are reported, which are in general agreement with the theoretical prediction. Further specific work is finally suggested which may advance our understanding and improve the Coriolis mass flow measurement technology.
