What is Flow Sensor?

A flow sensor is a device used to measure


the flow rate or quantity of a gas or liquid
moving through a pipe.
Types of Flow Sensors
1. Turbine Flow Sensors: Use a rotating turbine inside the flow stream to
measure flow rate.
2. Ultrasonic Flow Sensors: Use sound waves to measure the velocity of
fluid.
3. Electromagnetic Flow Sensors: Measure flow rate by detecting voltage
induced by a conductive fluid moving through a magnetic field.
4. Mass Flow Sensors: Measure mass flow rate of fluids using techniques
like thermal measurement or the Coriolis effect.
5. Positive Displacement Sensors: Measure volumetric flow by dividing
the fluid into fixed, metered amounts.

Applications
● Industrial Automation: For controlling and monitoring fluid flows in
production processes.
● Water Treatment Plants: For measuring and managing water
usage.
● Medical Equipment: Used in devices like ventilators to monitor
gas flow.
● Automotive Systems: To monitor fuel injection systems or cooling
systems.
