Domain measuring instruments
  • internal walls defining the measuring chambers are set in rotation and the number of revolutions of these walls represents a measurement of the volume of the gas passed
rotary piston gas meter
Usage examples
  • This Directive applies to the following gas volume meters: 1. Volumetric meters: - meters with deformable walls; - meters with rotary pistons. 2. Non-volumetric meters: - turbine meters. ... The present Chapter applies, together with the provisions of Chapter I, to: 1.1. Rotary piston gas meters - in which the measurement of gas passed is effected by means of measuring chambers with rotary walls. ... 3.1. Rotary Piston Meters 3.1.1. Meters should include upstream and downstream static pressure tappings of 3 to 5 millimetre diameter to permit measurement of the pressure drop : the pressure measured upstream will constitute the reference pressure. 3.1.2. The meters may incorporate a manual arrangement for turning the pistons provided that it cannot be used in such a way as to interfere with the correct operation of the meter. 3.1.3. The bearings of the shafts of the rotary pistons of meters of sizes G160 and above may be constructed in such a way as to provide access to them without breaking the protective seals.

  • veemõõtur, mis töötab teadaoleva mahuga kambris pöörleva kolvi põhimõttel ja on kõige tavalisem olmevee voomõõtur, mida tuntakse ka rootorkolvi või poolpositiivse nihkemõõturina
  • flow meter, that operate on the principle of a piston rotating within a chamber of known volume
  • device for flow measurement by mechanical, tilt, acoustical or electrical means
kolbveearvesti preferred
Usage examples
  • Kolbveearvestid, tuntud ka kui rootorkolb- või poolpositiivsed nihkemõõturid, on Ühendkuningriigis kõige levinumad veemõõturid ja neid kasutatakse peaaegu kõigi arvestite korral toruläbimõõduga kuni 40 mm (kaasa arvatud).

Good to know
  • Mõõtevahend ei ole elusolend.
rotary piston meter preferred
Usage examples
  • Because they are used for domestic water measurement, rotary piston meters, also known as semi-positive displacement meters, are the most common flow measurement devices in the UK and are used for almost all meter sizes up to and including 40 mm.

  • mõõtevahend vedeliku või gaasi ajaühikule vastava vookoguse mõõtmiseks
  • measuring instrument used to measurement the flow rate or quantity of a gas or liquid moving trough a pipe
  • type of flow instrument that is used to indicate the amount of liquid, gas, or vapor moving through a pipe or conduit by measuring linear, non-linear, mass, or volumetric flow rates
  • flow measuring device which indicates the measured flowrate
voomõõtur preferred
Usage examples
  • Inglise keeles kasutatakse terminit „voomõõtur“ ka mõõtevahendi kohta, mis näitab valitud ajavahemiku jooksul läbitud vedeliku üldkogust.
  • Tööstuslike rakendustega tavalised voomõõturite tüübid on järgmised: takistusvoomõõtur, turbiinvoomõõtur, elektromagnetvoomõõtur, nihkevoomõõtur, dünaamiline voomõõtur, ultraheli voomõõtur ja massivoomõõtur.
Good to know
  • Kuna vedelike ja gaaside voo mõõtmine ja reguleerimine on hädavajalik paljude tööstuslike rakenduste jaoks, siis sõltuvalt rakenduse iseloomust saab selleks kasutada palju erinevaid tüüpe voomõõtureid (vt kontekst).

Good to know
  • Meeter on pikkusühik.

Good to know
  • Mõõturi abil on võimalik mõõta voo kogust, mitte kulu.
kulunäitur deprecated
Good to know
  • Kulu ei ole voog.
flowmeter preferred
Usage examples
  • In the English language, the term "flowmeter" is also used for a device that indicates the total amount of fluid passed during a selected time interval.
  • Since flow control is often essential, measuring the flow of liquids and gasses is a critical need for many industrial applications – and there are many different types of flowmeters that can be utilized depending on the nature of the application.
