The principle of fluid oscillator flow sensor
Picture 1:
Section through the flow sensor
The liquid passes through a special insert, the oscillator. Before passing the oscillator, the liquid is led to a nozzle and accelerated to a jet (oscillating jet). Opposite of the nozzle, the jet is redirected to the left or right into the channel. Due to the differential pressure generated in the channel, part of the liquid flows to the piezo-sensor above and part flows back to the pipe. The pressure of the liquid on the piezo-sensor generates an electrical pulse. Thus the liquid flows back to the pipe through a return loop and redirects the jet into the other channel. The liquid of this channel flows on the other side of the piezo-sensor and generates again an electrical pulse.
Picture 2:
Schematic of oscillator with oscillating jet (RED)
The animated top view shows the oscillating jet and its differences in velocity: The oscillation jet accelerated by the nozzle has the highest velocity and is visible in red. The jet that has slowed down is represented in blue. The electrical pulses generated by the piezo-sensor with differential pressure correspond to the movement, the frequency of the jet (proportional to the flow). The electrical pulses are recorded by the integrator connected through a cable to the flow sensor and converted into flow.
