What is principle of ultrasonic level transmitter?

Answer Posted / hassanelect

The ideal mounting point for the sensor is directly
underneath the silo roof.
The ultrasonic emitter in the sensor is excited electrically
and sends an ultrasonic pulse in the direction of the
surface of the product. The surface partially reflects the
pulse. This echo is detected by the same sensor, now acting
as a directional microphone, and converted back into an
electrical signal.
The time between transmission and reception of the pulse -
the sonic run time - is directly proportional to the
distance between the sensor and the product surface.
The distance D is determined from the velocity of sound c
and the run time t by the formula:
D=C.t/2

Calculate the maximum pressure drop that can be allowed to occur across a control valve, so that we can prevent cavitation / flashing from occurring. Use the following formula: Δ P allow = Km (P1 – PvapourA) where, Δ P allow - the maximum allowable differential pressure for sizing purposes, or terminal pressure drop; Km- the valve recovery coefficient from the manufacturer’s catalogue; P1 - absolute inlet fluid pressure; PvapourA - absolute fluid vapour pressure at the inlet temperature; Use Atmospheric pressure = 101.3 kPa, P1 = 1200 kPa(g), PvapourA = 4 kPa, KM = 0.72
