This paper presents a design of a flow meter based on a programmable logic controller (PLC). The new construction of a flow meter controlled by PLC increases the possibilities for the control and automation of fluid flow. Additionally, the didactic potential of the use of simple automation in the form of a programmable logic controller was considered. A device enabling the measurement of fluid flow rate based on a PLC controller was designed, constructed, and tested.

Among the different techniques for monitoring the flow rate of various fluids, thermal flow sensors stand out for their straightforward measurement technique.

They require calibration whenever the fluid in the system changes.

If cylindrical holes are preferred in sensor capsules, it is necessary to enlarge the hole diameter to increase the volumetric flow rate of the gas.

Abstract:
Accurate flow measurement is a ubiquitous task in fields such as industry, medical technology, or chemistry; it remains however challenging due to small measurement ranges or erosive flows. Inspiration for possible measurement methods can come from nature, for example from the lateral line organ of fish, which is comprised of hair cells embedded in a gelatinous cupula. When the cupula is deflected by water movement, the hair cells generate neural signals from which the fish gains an accurate representation of its environment. We built a flow sensor mimicking a hair cell, but coupled it with an

Abstract:
In this work, several millimeter sized micro whistles have been tested as potential frequency analog gas flow sensors. The characteristic curves of the whistles were systematically investigated as a function of geometrical dimensions, the kind of gas applied, and temperature. Both a micro¬phone and a PVDF foil were employed to record the frequencies. The relation be¬tween oscillation frequency and volume flow rate only shows a weak function of fluid properties and temperature. At a given flow rate, the difference of argon and nitrogen is 120 Hz on average, which is corresponding to 1.4 %. For

This paper presents a novel gas-independent thermal flow sensor chip featuring three calorimetric flow sensors for measuring flow profile and direction within a tube, along with a single-wire flow independent thermal conductivity sensor capable of identifying the gas type through a simple DC voltage measurement. All wires have the same dimensions of 2000 μm in length, 5 μm in width, and 1.2 μm in thickness. The design theory and COMSOL simulation are discussed and compared with the measurement results. The sensor’s efficacy is demonstrated with different gases, He, N2, Ar, and CO2, for thermal

Abstract:
Precise flow measurement is crucial in fluid power systems. Especially in combination with pressure, hydraulic power can be particularly beneficial for predictive maintenance and control applications. However, conventional flow sensors in fluid power systems are often invasive, thus disrupting the flow and yielding unreliable measurements, especially under transient conditions. A common alternative is to estimate the flow rate using pressure differentials along a pipe and the Hagen–Poiseuille law, which is limited to steady, laminar, and incompressible flows.

In this proposed work, the design and analysis of a flow sensor to be integrated into a micro-channel is presented. A finite element analysis is carried out to simulate fluid-structure interaction and estimate cantilever deflection under different fluidic flows at constant flow rate. The design of device is based on the determination of geometrical dimensions. A mathematical analysis describing the fluid mechanics and their interaction with the beam is also proposed. The mathematical model is done using finite-element analysis, and a complete formulation for design analysis is determined. Fini

Hot film sensors detect the flow shear stress based on the forced convection heat transfer to the fluid. Current hot film sensors have been significantly hindered by the relatively low sensitivity due to the massive heat conduction to the substrate. This paper describes the design, fabrication, simulation, and testing of a novel flow sensor with dual-layer hot film structures. More specifically, the heat conduction was insulated from the sensing heater to the substrate by controlling both sensing and guarding heaters working at the same temperature, resulting in a higher sensitivity.

In this study, a portable urea sensor that monitors the urea concentration in flow conditions was fabricated. We propose an electrochemical sensor that continually measures the urea concentration of samples flowing through it at a constant flow rate in real time. For the electrochemical sensing, a porous silk fibroin membrane with immobilized urease was mounted in a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) sensor housing. The fabricated urea sensor elicited linear current–concentration characteristics in the clinically significant concentration range (0.1–20 mM) based on peritoneal dialysis. The sensor mai

An optical fibre has been used as an intensity-based sensor for the monitoring of the fluid front infiltrating a reinforcing fibre mat in composites manufacturing. The sensor length comprised the fibre core, initially surrounded by air or vacuum and subsequently covered by the infiltrating fluid. Two configurations were tested where a step-change or a continual output signal was obtained, respectively. In the latter case, the sensor used in this study demonstrates an improvement of up to two orders of magnitude over conventional monitoring techniques used for this application. This performance
