Assignee: Interatom GmbH (Bergisch Gladbach, DE)
Primary Examiner: Ruehl; Charles A.
Assistant Examiner:
Attorney, Agent or Firm: Lerner; Herbert L., Greenberg; Laurence A.

An apparatus for measuring the flow rate of electrically conductive liquids includes two coils disposed in succession as seen in the flow direction of a liquid. The coils are switched in alternation as a primary and a secondary coil. One of the coils is excited with an alternating current as the primary coil, and voltage induced by the excitation in the other of the coils as the secondary coil is measured.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1.
Apparatus for measuring the flow rate of electrically conductive liquids, comprising two coils disposed in succession as seen in the flow direction of a liquid, means for switching said coils in alternation as a primary and a secondary coil, means for exciting one of said coils with an alternating current as the primary coil, and means for measuring voltage induced by the excitation in the other of said coils as the secondary coil.
2.
Apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the exciter current has a frequency making the induction voltages to be measured substantially independent of the temperature of the liquid.
3.
Apparatus according to claim 2, wherein said coils are switched periodically in accordance with a clock frequency, for determining a voltage difference.
4.
Apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the exciter frequency is an integral multiple of the clock frequency.
5.
Apparatus according to claim 1, including an amplifier for amplifying the induction voltages of said coils prior to a difference formation, and a switch system connecting said amplifier to said coils.
6.
Apparatus according to claim 5, including a band pass filter connected downstream of said amplifier.
7.
Apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the mean frequency of said band pass filter is automatically controlled by the frequency of the exciter current.
8.
Apparatus according to claim 1, including two settable current sources for alternating current of constant amplitude each being connected to a respective one of said coils for operation as a primary coil, and a common oscillator for the frequency of said exciter current for driving said current sources.

Description:
The invention relates to an apparatus for measuring the flow rate of electrically conductive liquids by means of coils disposed in succession in the flow direction, one of the coils being excitable with an alternating current as the primary coil, and the voltage thereby induced in secondary coils being measurable
