Main performance features

Design features that deliver measurable performance in real industrial environments.

Stable Flow Conditioning

The cone reshapes velocity profiles into uniform, predictable flow, ensuring consistent accuracy even when installed near elbows or valves.

High Measurement Accuracy

The optimized differential-pressure signal delivers consistent accuracy and repeatability even when flow, density, or load conditions fluctuate.

Low Straight-Run Requirement

The design achieves full performance with minimal upstream and downstream piping, reducing installation constraints and retrofit complexity.

Wide Operating Range

High turndown capability supports stable performance across large variations in flow rate, enabling flexibility in dynamic process conditions.

Minimal Pressure Loss

The streamlined obstruction reduces permanent pressure loss compared to traditional DP elements, improving system efficiency over time.

Long-Term Signal Stability

The wear-resistant design maintains β-ratio consistency over time, delivering durable performance with reduced recalibration and minimal maintenance effort

Precision Geometry Backed by Advanced Flow-Mechanics Research

Developed through simulation, structural modeling, and application-specific testing
Our V-Cone flowmeter is developed through a disciplined R&D process that integrates CFD-based geometry refinement, differential-pressure behavior simulation, and long-term operational testing. This approach allows us to engineer a cone profile that stabilizes the velocity distribution, maintains uniform shedding characteristics, and minimizes sensitivity to upstream disturbances. Through iterative modeling, material verification, and real-application evaluation, we design a meter capable of delivering stable measurement across a wide range of temperatures, pressures, and media conditions.
  • CFD-Guided Profile Design

    The cone geometry is refined through fluid-dynamic simulations to achieve uniform velocity distribution and stable differential-pressure generation under diverse flow profiles.

  • DP Signal Stability Analysis

    Signal behavior is modeled across varying Reynolds numbers to ensure consistent performance during load changes, density shifts, and upstream turbulence.

  • Thermal-Mechanical Evaluation

    Material selections and body structures are validated under simulated temperature and pressure extremes to support long-term field reliability.

  • Application-Driven β-Ratio Optimization

    β-ratio ranges are engineered to match pipeline size, media composition, and operating conditions, ensuring accurate DP response across the meter’s full range.

Manufacturing Excellence

Fabrication, assembly, and testing are optimized to protect performance under real pipeline conditions.

Our fabrication process ensures stable DP characteristics by controlling dimensional tolerances, surface smoothness, and concentricity. After assembly, each meter is subjected to multi-condition verification, confirming its stability across gas, steam, and liquid media. This engineered production approach preserves reliability under real-world operating conditions.
