What is the differace between Volumatric flow meter and Mass
flow meter.

Answer Posted / yogesh pai

Volumetric flow meter gives flow rate in terms of volume
viz liters/hr,gallon, m3/hr etc whereas mass flow meter
(coriolis) gives direct mass flwo rate viz kg/hr/tons/hr etc
Usually mass is derived by multiplying volume with product
density.
Volumetric flowmetering is affected by changes in the
temperature, pressure, density, viscosity, and flow profile
of the process fluid.
Coriolis flowmetering provides direct mass measurement that
is unaffected by changing fluid characteristics.
