Theory of Operation - Density
Density measurement is based on the natural frequency of the system including
the flow tubes and the process fluid.
– As the mass increases, the natural frequency of the system decreases.
– As the mass decreases, the natural frequency of the system increases.

Density Measurement
As the density of the process
fluid increases, the natural
frequency decreases.
As the density of the process
fluid decreases, the natural
frequency increases.

Theory of Operations – Mass Flow During a no flow condition, there is no Coriolis effect and the sine waves are in
phase with each other.
When fluid is moving through the sensor's tubes, Coriolis forces are induced
causing the flow tubes to twist in opposition to each other. The time difference
between the sine waves is measured and is called Delta-T which is directly
proportional to the mass flow rate.
![Page 9: Effects of Pressure and Temperature on Coriolis … of Pressure and Temperature on Coriolis Flow Meters Steve Smith Business Manager Micro Motion Coriolis, Density & Viscosity Agenda](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051405/5a9fc6b67f8b9a8e178d288e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Theory of Operations – Mass Flow The Flow Calibration Factor consists of 10 characters, including
two decimal points. – The first five digits are the flow calibration factor. This calibration factor,
multiplied by a given Delta-T, yields mass flow rate in grams/sec.
– The last three digits are a temperature coefficient for the sensor tube material.
This coefficient compensates for the effect of temperature on tube rigidity (%
change in rigidity per 100°C).

Theory of Operation – Volume (indirect or calculated)
Volumetric Flow is a calculated variable.
Volume can be referenced to standard temperature using the temperature input.
Coriolis meters are preferred for volume measurements.
– Low pressure drop
– Wide turndown
– High accuracy
– High degree of linearity

Coriolis Sensor Geometries
All Geometries are not created equal
Design trade-offs are made for such things as;
– Flow sensitivity & turndown
– Density accuracy
– Fluid S.G. range (gas/liquid)
– Materials of construction
– Temperature effects
– Drainability and Cleanability
– Pressure limits
Micro Motion provides several geometries to meet the wide
measurement requirements of the industries and customers we serve.

Working Example
Starting point = 0.1% “Flat Spec”
• However, when flow rate is less than zero stability / 0.001:
• Accuracy = ±[(zero stability / flow rate) × 100]% of rate, and repeatability = ±[½(zero
stability / flow rate) × 100]%.
CMFHC2
• Zero Stability = 68 kg/hr
• Temperature Span = +4.25%/100degC
• Pressure Span = -0.023%/bar
• Temp Zero Effect = ±0.00025%/degC

Customer Challenge: Make it easy to determine the health of my meter
“We calibrate manually by taking meters out of the process, and it is a pain. It is an all-day deal and we pay £2k to 3k per meter per year for this. We can spend more than £200,000 per year, and the calibration factors
never seem to change” --- Chemical Customer
• “Can I tell if my Coriolis meter has changed?”
• “Can I detect when the meter is being coated?”
• “How often do I need to recalibrate my meter?”

Micro Motion Smart Meter Verification Overview
Coriolis meters have no moving parts
– Expectation that meter calibration will never change
Mechanical stiffness is directly related to flow calibration factor
– Damage or degradation will affect both
Meter Verification precisely tests mechanical stiffness
– And associated electrical components
Measurement is validated – or – warning is issued
