What type of flow meter is used to measure the flow rate of natural gas flue gas?

I would like to ask everyone: what type of flow meter should be used to measure the flow rate of natural gas exhaust? Natural gas is relatively clean, without any ash. I’d like some advice

Vortex meters or ultrasonic sensors; the former is cheaper but has lower precision, though it is usually sufficient. @jiaguoyun @jiaguoyun @Second time, filling in the gap from last time; it’s driving those below crazy. :victory::lol @budaoweng123 @Sammy_Wang

:Lol, that’s great – I’ll @you one more time: @jiaguoyun

I can only say, “What enthusiastic audience!” Are you guys the so-called idiot fans? ! @budaoweng123 @Sammy_Wang

We did something that I think is quite funny: we bought an anemometer specifically for conducting fluidization experiments on boilers, but in actual measurements we used a Vortex Flow Meter; the accuracy of the anemometer is likely even lower than that of the Vortex Flow Meter... @HEJIYUER

Shouldn’t the Pitot tube be transliterated as “pitot tube” to sound more professional? The pitot tube has never been used on site; I’ve only heard that it is used in airplanes to determine the flight speed of the aircraft, and it’s also known as an \"airspeed tube\"”

Shouldn’t the flow meter be sent to the instruments section? Where is Aunt Wang? @jiaguoyun

What are the components of the natural gas flue gas flow? Mrs. Wang, I’m not a stupid fan – because I simply have no brain. :victory:

This is smoke; how can it be so clean? Natural gas? Smoke again? !

PITOT is a point-type measurement, so its accuracy is naturally lower. Emission levels are required by environmental regulations; but what level of accuracy is needed for flow measurements? Whatever it’s called now, its scientific name should be AVERAGE PITOT – using multiple points for pressure measurement improves accuracy. Military aircraft: looking at the purpose of the U.S. F35’s stealth features, the exposed airspeed tubes have been removed; it is said that pressure sensors located beneath the skin are used instead, with a total of over a dozen such sensors. But there are accuracy issues at low altitudes; the last time, a drone crashed because the PT system thought the speed was high enough to lift off, but it crashed again since the actual speed wasn’t sufficient. . . @jiaguoyun
