The ideal accuracy curve of a volumetric meter, such as the turbine, is a straight line denoting a constant meter factor. Cavitation is the formation and collapse of vapor-filled cavities that result from a sudden decrease and increase in pressure. Refer to Back pressure calculation for more information. www.Daniel.com User manual...
Page 29
The metering system should have a flow rate control valve located at a convenient distance downstream of all measurement equipment. The function of the control valve is to limit and maintain system pressure on the meter. This avoids cavitation. www.Daniel.com Daniel Series 1200 Liquid Turbine Meter...
