8.1 Functional principle
Vortex flowmeters are used to measure the volumetric flow of gases, vapours and liquids at
completly filled pipes.
The measuring principle is based on the Karman vortex street. The measuring tube contains a
bluff body, behind which vortex shedding occurs. The frequency ffff of the vortex shedding is
proportional to the flow rate vvvv. The nondimensional Strouhal number S
