Abstract: A device for measuring a mass flow rate of a multiphase flow based on ray coincidence measurement includes a support frame and a plurality of ray detection assemblies. The support frame includes a central through hole and an outer wall, and the central through hole is configured to receive a fluid pipe. The plurality of ray detection assemblies is distributed along the circumferential direction of the outer wall and is perpendicular to the axis of the central through hole. The plurality of ray detection assemblies each includes a scintillation crystal and a detector, and the scintillation crystal is disposed between the outer wall and the detector.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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

Abstract: A mass flow control apparatus is capable of controlling a flow rate of a fluid to a tool. Pressure of the fluid is regulated by a solenoid valve, which receives signals from a control module. Various set points may be inputted to the control module, whereby control module receives pressure sensor signals from across a flow restrictor and adjusts the solenoid valve to control the fluid flow rate to equal a set point.

Abstract: A method for determining an estimated flow rate of fluid flow in a pump comprises: obtaining measurements of the pressure and temperature of fluid at the intake to the pump, the pressure and temperature of the fluid at the discharge from the pump, and the electrical power supplied to the pump; determining values representing either the density of the fluid and the specific heat capacity of the fluid, or the specific fluid enthalpy based on measurements and/or historical data; and calculating an estimated efficiency of the pump and an estimated flow rate of the fluid based on the measured electrical power, the measured temperatures, the measured pressures, the determined value for density and the determined value for specific heat capacity or the determined value for specific fluid enthalpy.
