Product Overview
Ultrasonic Flow Measurement for Industrial Pipelines
The FlowDo Ultrasonic Flow Meter determines process flow using ultrasonic signals transmitted through or across the flowing fluid.
The FlowDo Ultrasonic Flow Meter determines process flow using ultrasonic signals transmitted through or across the flowing fluid. Depending on the selected ultrasonic measurement technology, the instrument analyses characteristics such as ultrasonic travel time or signal behavior to determine fluid velocity.
The measured velocity is then used with the configured pipe dimensions to determine the corresponding volumetric flow rate. Ultrasonic technology does not require a rotating turbine measurement element, making it suitable for a variety of industrial flow-monitoring applications when pipe, fluid and installation conditions are appropriate.
Selection Guidance: Final product selection should consider pipe size, pipe material, wall thickness, liner, fluid characteristics, flow range, temperature, pressure, installation type and required output.
Important Technology Distinction
Please note that an Ultrasonic Flow Meter is distinct from an Ultrasonic Level Transmitter:
- Ultrasonic Flow Meter: Measures fluid velocity and volumetric flow rate inside industrial pipes.
- Ultrasonic Level Transmitter: Measures air-gap distance and liquid height inside tanks, sumps, or open channels.
- Electromagnetic Flow Meter: Uses Faraday's Law for conductive liquids with magnetic coils.
- Turbine Flow Meter: Uses a mechanical rotating rotor driven by fluid velocity.
- Vortex Flow Meter: Uses alternating vortices formed downstream of a bluff body.

Acoustic Physics
Flow Changes the Ultrasonic Travel Time
The transit-time differential is directly proportional to the average fluid velocity along the acoustic path.
The Transit-Time Concept
When fluid is stationary, sound travels between Transducers A and B at identical speeds in both directions. When the fluid begins moving, fluid velocity assists the downstream acoustic wave while retarding the upstream acoustic wave:
ฮt (Transit-Time Difference) โ
Fluid Velocity (v) โ
Volumetric Flow Rate (Q = v ร A)
Fluid Velocity (v) โ
Volumetric Flow Rate (Q = v ร A)
The exact relationship is determined by the meter geometry, pipe configuration and instrument calibration.
Doppler Ultrasonic Flow Measurement
Doppler ultrasonic flow measurement operates on a different acoustic principle. It detects frequency changes in reflected ultrasonic signals from suitable suspended particles or bubbles moving with the process fluid.
Doppler Signal Path:
TRANSDUCER โ ULTRASONIC SIGNAL โ MOVING PARTICLE / BUBBLE โ REFLECTED SIGNAL โ FREQUENCY SHIFT โ FLOW VELOCITY
TRANSDUCER โ ULTRASONIC SIGNAL โ MOVING PARTICLE / BUBBLE โ REFLECTED SIGNAL โ FREQUENCY SHIFT โ FLOW VELOCITY
Technology Note: Transit-Time and Doppler measurement are distinct physical principles. Clear-fluid transit-time and particle-based Doppler systems are not interchangeable; suitability depends on the selected FlowDo model and fluid condition.
Non-Intrusive Installation
Measure Flow from Outside the Pipe
Clamp-on ultrasonic transducers are mounted on the outside surface of a compatible pipe. This allows flow measurement without inserting a mechanical sensor into the fluid stream.
Clamp-On Configuration
External Pipe Mounting Advantages
Clamp-on sensors attach directly to the exterior wall of the pipeline using clamping fixtures and acoustic coupling compound. The sound waves penetrate the pipe wall, traverse the fluid, and return through the opposite wall.
- No process penetration: No pipe cutting, welding, drilling, or process shutdown required
- No rotating element in flow path: Eliminates mechanical rotor friction and moving parts
- Zero inline pressure loss: Does not cause any additional hydraulic pressure drop
- Retrofit potential: Well-suited for existing plants, temporary audits, and clean pipelines
Inline Configuration
Inline Ultrasonic Flow Measurement
Inline ultrasonic flow meters integrate the ultrasonic measuring section directly into the pipeline with factory-calibrated geometry.
This configuration provides known acoustic path lengths and controlled sensor positioning while using ultrasonic sound-wave rather than mechanical rotor measurement.
Configuration Notice: Clamp-on and inline configurations serve different operational needs. Selection depends on pipeline access, pipe material, required accuracy, and process pressure ratings.
Transducer Mounting
Transducer Mounting Arrangements
Educational overview of standard acoustic transducer mounting methods used in clamp-on transit-time measurement.
V-Mount
V-Method Mounting
Transducers are mounted on the same side of the pipe. Signals reflect off the opposite pipe wall before reaching the receiving transducer. Typically used for small-to-medium pipe diameters.
Z-Mount
Z-Method Mounting
Transducers are installed on opposite sides of the pipe. The acoustic wave passes directly across the fluid path once. Recommended for large pipelines, high attenuation fluids, or lined pipes.
W-Mount
W-Method Mounting
Multiple acoustic reflections through the pipe walls increase the transit-time path length for enhanced resolution in very small pipeline diameters where supported.
Mounting Guidance: Mounting method depends on pipe diameter, pipe wall thickness, material, fluid attenuation, and the selected FlowDo transducer specification.
Pipe Compatibility
Pipe Material Matters for Ultrasonic Measurement
Ultrasonic signals must travel through the pipe wall and process fluid in clamp-on applications. Pipe material and acoustic properties therefore influence transducer selection and configuration.
Pipe Material Compatibility
Compatible pipe materials may include carbon steel, stainless steel, PVC, copper, and ductile iron according to selected configuration. Acoustic impedance determines sound-wave transmission efficiency.
Accurate Pipe Data
Pipe outside diameter and wall thickness are essential configuration parameters in clamp-on ultrasonic measurement because they directly dictate the internal acoustic travel path.
Consider Internal Pipe Liners
Internal liners (such as cement mortar, rubber, or epoxy) influence acoustic propagation and must be configured where present in the pipeline.
Good Acoustic Coupling
Clamp-on transducers require effective acoustic coupling compound between transducer face and pipe exterior to eliminate air gaps and ensure maximum signal transfer.
Pipe Wall Thickness Significance
In clamp-on systems, the ultrasonic beam refracts according to Snell's Law as it crosses from the transducer wedge into the pipe wall and then into the process fluid.
Use actual measured pipe wall thickness rather than nominal pipe schedules whenever possible to achieve optimal flow-calculation accuracy.
Coupling Compound Application
Acoustic energy cannot cross an air boundary. A continuous layer of coupling gel, grease, or acoustic pad is applied between the transducer face and the clean pipe surface.
Use the installation method and coupling material specified for the selected FlowDo transducer.
Installation Conditions
Stable Flow Conditions Improve Measurement Quality
Elbows, pumps, control valves and piping disturbances can alter the flow velocity profile. Following installation guidelines supports dependable measurement.
Correct Transducer Positioning
Transducer spacing and mounting position depend on pipe dimensions, fluid properties, and selected ultrasonic measurement configuration. For horizontal pipelines, transducers are typically mounted at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions to avoid sediment at the bottom and gas bubbles at the top.
Straight-Run Guidance: Follow the upstream and downstream straight pipe run requirements specified for the selected FlowDo Ultrasonic Flow Meter model.
Fluid Condition Influences Ultrasonic Signals
For transit-time measurement, excessive entrained gas, bubbles, or heavy slurries can scatter and attenuate acoustic sound pulses. For Doppler configurations, a suitable concentration of reflective particles or bubbles is required.
Maintain a Suitable Filled-Pipe Condition
For liquid ultrasonic flow measurement, the pipeline cross-section must remain completely filled so that acoustic waves travel through liquid rather than air pockets.
Good Condition
Full Liquid Path
Liquid completely fills pipe bore. Acoustic wave travels across full path uninterrupted.
Review Required
Partially Filled / Air Pocket
Air at top of pipe blocks or refracts acoustic beam. Install in vertical rising pipe if needed.
Review Ultrasonic Signal Quality During Installation
Compatible transmitter configurations provide diagnostic signal indicators (such as signal strength, transmission ratio, and acoustic quality value) to assist during transducer positioning and commissioning.
