− The weight vector theory for Coriolis flow meters has been the subject of research presented by Hemp and co-workers in various articles. The underlying theory may not be easily understood. This paper explains the application of the weight vector theory for Coriolis flowmeters. The theory is applied to simple theoretical meter configurations consisting of a single straight pipe. The applicatio...

The Yokogawa Group has developed the ROTAMASS 3 series Coriolis flow and density meters. A Coriolis flowmeter can directly measure mass flow of fluid regardless of its temperature and pressure. The ROTAMASS 3 series meters have such unique features as fast signal processing, anti-vibration mechanism, and high accuracy density measurement. This paper describes these features and applications of ...

In recent years, the interest in integrated microfluidic systems has been steadily growing. In these systems (for instance (bio)chemical and DNA analysis and synthesis devices), accurate dosing of liquids and/or gases is of great importance. To achieve this, accurate (mass) flow sensing is necessary. This project is dedicated to the development of a new micro Coriolis flow sensor. The inherent ...

The propagation velocity and propagation mechanism for vortices on a plane are determined for a reduced-gravity model by integrating the momentum equations over the plane. Isolated vortices, vortices in a background current, and initial vortex propagation from rest are studied. The propagation mechanism for isolated anticyclones as well as cyclones, which has been lacking up to now, is presente...
