How to calculate the flow rate in Vortex flow meter?What is K factor?Can you give me an example calc..

Answer / rajesh.

Vortex flow meters are flow sensors that detect the frequency of vortices shed by a bluff body placed in a flow stream. The frequency of the vortices is proportional to the flow velocity.
Flow rate information can be output as an analog current signal.
k factor is introduced to compensate for the non-uniform profile of pipe flow.
