Daniel Gas Turbine Meter IGURE 1 Gas Turbine meter chown whith Model MRT 07 Flow Totalizer AcCURATE MEASUREMENT EXPLAINED SL {A the ges flow eniers the meter inlet, iis guided through a flow area created by the inside diameter of the meter and the outside diameter of the flow deflector. The flow deflector or nose cone is used to increase the velocity of the gas to prepare its entry to the meter rotor. The increase in velocity provides ample rotor driving ‘ore. ‘Alter the flowing gas has been accelerated it flows through the ‘meter rotor. The rotor is designed with a specific number of blades positioned at a precise angie to the flow stream. The gas impinges, ‘on the rotor blades causing the rotor to rotate. The angular velocity of the rotor is diractly proportional to the gas velocity and conse- ‘quently to the volumetric ‘low rate. Hence, by accurately measuring the rotor rotation the volumet- ric flow rate can be determined. The Danie! Gas Turbine Meter is furnished with two magnetic pick ups wt ‘sense the rotation of the rotor throuch accurately positioned magnets in the rotor hub. As the magnet passes the coil it produces a voltage pulse which represents a discret unit of volume. The turbine meter output is rated in pulses por unit volume. Daniel offers two independent isolated pick ups which can be used with Daniel local totalizers and/or flow instrumentation capable of aocopting inputs of pressure, temperature and density ‘rensduc- ers for calculations of corrected flow or mass.

A wet gas stream may require inspection only once per year while dry, dusty gas may require service as frequently as 30 days. Periodic in- spections are necessary fortworeasons: (1) tocheck the spin time to insure rangeabilty of the mater, and (2) to visually check internal parts. Field service checks may becomplemented by meter provingto insureaccuracyot measurement. For recommended proving techniques, see proving section of this mantial FIGURE 4 Parts List ‘A.
