Abstract: A differential pressure sensor (10) adapted specifically for use with vortex shedding flowmeters which can be used in small spaces, uses a bending beam (60) for providing an electrical signal proportional to differential pressures between two oppositely facing diaphragms (40A, 40B). The diaphragms deflect under differential pressure and cause the beam (60) to be bent. The diaphragms have low mass and have a support structure (43) between them, carrying spring clips (50) which load one end of the bending beam (60). The other end of the bending beam (60) is then supported so it cantilevers from its mounting or support (61, 62) and upon movement of the diaphragms under differential pressure the beam (60) will bend. The signal can be derived by using a bending element made of a piezoelectric "bimorph" beam, which provides a voltage output as it bends, a strain gauge sensor on a beam, or an optical sensor, such as a fine fiber which deflects and provides an optical output may be used, as well as similar devices. Preferably, the sensor is a piezoelectric bimorph beam because of the direct electrical signals provided, which result from bending of the beam (60).

Abstract: A two-wire transmitter senses a pressure using an internal pressure sensor. The transmitter includes an input for receiving a process variable from a remote sensor which is separated from the transmitter. Circuitry in the transmitters transmits information on a two-wire process control loop which is related to the sensed pressure and the process variable.

Abstract: A vortex sensor used in a vortex flowmeter that has a single sensing diaphragm parallel to the direction of flow that is sensitive to differential pressures caused by vortices shed by a vortex shedding bar associated with the sensing diaphragm. A beam is attached to the sensing diaphragm and it transfers the deflecting motion of the sensing diaphragm due to differential pressures to a sensor external to the flow passageway. The sensor provides an output indicating motions of the beam caused by the beam pivoting when the sensing diaphragm deflects. The beam preferably is pivoted on a relatively rigid, fluid-tight isolator diaphragm with one end of the beam on the outside of the isolator diaphragm. The sensing diaphragm which is used to measure differential pressure rejects variations in the static pressure, that is, increases and decreases of the static pressure on both sides of the diaphragm, which is a common source of problems with existing vortex flowmeter sensors.

Abstract: VORTEX FLOWMETER BLUFF BODY A vortex flowmeter utilizes a bluff body or bar which creates vortices that are sufficiently stable and of sufficient strength to provide for pressure signals that are easily sensed, and at the same time achieves satisfactory linearity between the frequency of the vortices and the rate of flow past the sensor. The flowmeter is designed so that the same sensor arrangement for sensing the frequency of vortex generation can be used for flowmeters designed for a wide range of pipe or line sizes. By utilizing the cross section geometry of the bluff body or bar disclosed herein, the section of the body that is used for mounting the sensor is the same width, which is the critical dimension for sensor mounting, for line sizes from two inches (5.08 cm) to eight inches (20.32 cm) inclusive and line sizes from one inch (2.54 cm) to one and one-half inches (3.81 cm) inclusive. The ability to have a standard sensor for a number of different meter sizes reduces inventories and manufacturing costs, and also makes service of sensors easier. The flowmeter of the present invention not only permits the interchangeability of sensors across a wide range of pipe sizes, but also has good linearity, is easy to manufacture, and continues to operate reliably after extensive usage.
