The principle of fluid oscillator flow sensor
The main part of the flow passes through a Venturi nozzle in the pipe, creating the differential pressure to bypass the other part of the flow through the fluid oscillator.
In the oscillator the liquid is led to a nozzle and accelerated to a jet. Opposite of the nozzle the jet is redirected to the left or right into a channel that leads upwards to the sensor head equipped with a piezo sensor. The pressure of the liquid on the sensor creates an electrical pulse. The liquid flows back to the pipe through a return loop and redirects the jet into the other channel where the action is repeated and fluid oscillation is created. The frequency of this oscillation is linear proportional to the volume flow. A supplementary benefit is the self cleaning effect due to the oscillating character.
The animated top view on the oscillator shows the differences of velocity of the liquid. The jet accelerated by the nozzle with the highest velocity in red, slow velocity in blue.
