摘要: Mass flow controllers that can provide for improved bleeding time and can be manufactured with less complexity and cost are provided. A mass flow controller includes a body having a valve outlet bore defining a flow path and an adjustable valve configured to control flow of a gas through the flow path. A valve element includes an outlet orifice of the adjustable valve and is disposed within the bore. The mass flow controller further includes a pressure drop element disposed coaxially with the valve element within the bore. An upstream pressure sensor is configured to detect a pressure at a location in the flow path between the adjustable valve and the pressure drop element, and a controller is configured to determine a flow rate through the flow path based on pressure as detected by the upstream pressure sensor.

摘要: Systems, devices, and methods are provided for measuring fluid flow across a pump used in a system for precisely and accurately metering fluid. The systems, devices, and methods can use contactless approaches to measure the properties of the fluid being pumped. The measured properties can be used to precisely and accurately determine the flow rate through the pump.

摘要: A measuring system for measuring a mass flow rate, a density, a temperature or a flow velocity. The measuring system includes a main line, a first Coriolis measuring device arranged in the main line, a second Coriolis measuring device arranged in series with the first Coriolis measuring device in the main line, a bypass line which bypasses the second Coriolis measuring device, a first valve arranged in the bypass line, and a computing unit which is connected to the first Coriolis measuring device and to the second Coriolis measuring device. The first valve opens depending on a pressure. The first Coriolis measuring device is designed for a higher maximum flow rate than the second Coriolis measuring device.

摘要: A fluid monitoring module includes an enclosure, a fluid sensing device assembled with the enclosure, and a controller disposed within the enclosure. The fluid sensing device includes a body member defining a fluid port external to the enclosure and a male threaded sensor port mounted to the enclosure and extending laterally into the enclosure, a female threaded nut assembled with the sensor port, a fluid sensor seated against a counterbore portion of the sensor port, and a retaining collar having a neck portion extending into the sensor port in engagement with the fluid sensor and a head portion captured between the female threaded nut and an end face of the sensor port. The controller is in circuit communication with the fluid sensor for receiving at least one of pressure indicating signals and temperature indicating signals from the fluid sensor, and for measuring fluid data based on the received signals.

摘要: A flow measurement apparatus can include a main flow passage, a bypass flow passage having an inlet and an outlet connected with the main flow passage, a mass flowmeter connected in the bypass flow passage between the inlet and the outlet, and a flow restrictor connected in the bypass flow passage between the inlet and the outlet. A method can include connecting the flow measurement apparatus, so that a fluid flow in the well also flows through the flow measurement apparatus, and determining at least one rheological parameter of a non-Newtonian fluid, based on an output of the flow measurement apparatus.

摘要: A mud flow measurement system includes a flow pipe, a Coriolis meter, a differential pressure sensor, and a mud flow measurement module. The mud flow measurement module is configured to select a calibration curve corresponding to a drilling mud injected into the well, determine a measured density based on the signal from each of the vibration sensors and the selected calibration curve, determine a differential pressure across the Coriolis meter from the differential pressure sensor, and compute a calculated mass flow rate, Qmass, of the multiphase mud flow using equation

摘要: The present invention intends to more accurately diagnose a function of a flow rate sensor regardless of a variation in measurement ambient condition. The present invention includes: a flow rate sensor for measuring the flow rate of fluid; a correction part adapted to measure an output value of the flow rate sensor or a value related to the output value (hereinafter collectively referred to as an “output-related value”), relates the measured output-related value and a corresponding measurement ambient condition to each other, and in accordance with the measurement ambient condition in measurement data, correct the output-related value or a reference value that is predetermined in order to determine whether the output-related value is normal; and a diagnostic part adapted to compare the output-related value and the reference value on the basis of a correction result by the correction part and correct the function of the flow rate sensor.

摘要: A method of measuring a molecular rate of gas flow from an upstream source of gas at a pressure higher than a pressure of a destination includes flowing the gas through an upstream valve into a cavity of known volume, then through a restrictor element before proceeding to the destination, controlling the upstream valve to vary a flow rate of the gas through the upstream valve in a determined manner such that its average pressure in the cavity correlates with an average level of gas flow and such that variations in pressure in the cavity induced by varying the flow rate of gas through the upstream valve in the determined manner induce instantaneous pressure variations smaller than 30% of the average pressure in that cavity; and using the variations in the pressure in the cavity associated with varying the flow rate of gas through the upstream valve in the determined manner to determine the molecular rate of gas flow to the destination in real time.

摘要: A methodology and system determine properties of a sample substance, such as a liquid/foam used to control sweep homogeneity problems in an earth formation. The methodology and system utilize a core of formation simulation material placed in a container. An injection system is coupled to the container and enables placement of both the sample substance and an injection fluid into the container. The injection fluid is injected under pressure and moves the sample substance through the core. A data acquisition system is employed to measure parameters such as pressure differentials along the core as the sample substance propagates through the formation simulation material. The pressure differentials may be evaluated over time by the data acquisition system to determine fluid breakthrough properties of the sample substance.
