what is the difference between impact plate n coriolis type solid flow meters n how they works....n which one is better

Answer Posted / carl_ellis

One, the impact plate, is for solids. The other, coriolis, is for liquids and gases.

The flow of solids produces a mechanical deflection as the material strikes the flowmeter sensing plate before continuing

through the process unhindered.

Coriolis measures the phase shift the mass of liquid or gas creates in a bent tube that is vibrated at a known frequency.

Each is a mass flow meter for different media and you can not subsitute one for the other. So a comparison is irrelevant.
