    The document is a class notes on the topic of transferring momentum. It lists the teacher, Alex Pilco Nuñez, and students, Ingrid Silupú Rodríguez and Javier Cueva Rodríguez. It also discusses the advantages of using a rotameter (variable area meter) to measure flow, including that it requires no external power, allows you to see the process, is cost effective, simple to install and maintain, has low pressure drop, and is repeatable. These features will allow rotameters to continue being important for measuring flow.

    Why Use a Rotameter (Variable Area
    Meter) to Measure Flow ??
    1.No external power required
    2.You can see the process
    3.Rotameters are cost effective
    4.Simple to install and maintain
    5.Low pressure drop
    6.Repeatability

    These six features assure rotameters will continue to be important


    products to measure flow now and in the future!!
    How does it work??
    How to calibrate??
    Please, complete!
    Several companies works with it!!
    Different versions!!
    2500 Series Acrylic Tube
    Variable Area Flow
    Meters
    Precision-machined
    acrylic.
    Economical liquid or gas
    measurement.
    Models 2510 / 2520 / 2530
    / 2540S or V / 2540I
    KEY APPLICATIONS
    •Basic liquid (including water) or gas flow
    measurement
    •Rotating equipment flow measurement
    •Process analyzers
    •High-pressure flow on offshore oil platforms
    •Chemical injection
    •Purge liquid or gas metering
    Disadvantages
    In other words
    Existing flow meter technologies such as positive displacement
    (PD), turbine, variable area (VA or Rotameter) and differential
    pressure (DP) - once the best-fit or only solution for some
    applications - are no longer the only choice. Today, modern flow
    technologies such as vortex, ultrasonic and Coriolis offer a much
    more reliable alternative, especially when a plant's process needs
    improvement.

    •Intrinsic safe
    •Cost savings in respect of cabling work
    •Superior performance and less maintenance
    •Direct mass flow measurement
