Exposing Coriolis mass flowmeters' "dirty little secret"
Article Abstract:
A closer inspection of Coriolis mass flowmeter a technology considered to be the most accurate in flowmetering technology reveals that it has a major flaw, that it cannot deal with two phase slug flow. In addition to this Coriolis presents problems for dynamic response and sizing meters for non-newtonian liquids also.
