I run a company called Flow Research that I started in 1998. We publish market studies on flowmeters and oil & gas. I love to write about flow & philosophy.

How has the flowmeter market changed since 1993? In 1993, the size of the worldwide flowmeter market was $2.06 billion. In 2003, it was $3.1 billion. By 2023, it had more than doubled in size from 2003. For more information, go to flowvolumex.com/.

Conclusion: Somehow, when you form a straight line whose length has a rational value into a circle, its length becomes irrational. But a rational number cannot equal an irrational number. This is the paradox of the line and the circle.

The Origin of Multivariable Vortex Flowmeters
Vortex flowmeters display a growing trend towards multi-technology flowmeters. Single variable vortex meters measure volumetric flow. Multivariable vortex flowmeters include pressure and/or temperature sensors…lnkd.in/eB4WyD5C

What Types of Temperature Sensors are Used with Flowmeters?
When I attended the MCAA Industry Forum, a lot of people asked me when Flow Research would do another temperature sensor study. As a result, I started thinking again about the relation between t…lnkd.in/eg4hDjhb

Do Thermal Flowmeters Measure Mass Flow Directly?
A lot of people draw a distinction between Coriolis flowmeters and multivariable vortex and differential pressure (DP) flowmeters. They say that Coriolis flowmeter measure mass flow “directly” while multiv…lnkd.in/e9AHbzJv

Happy National Pi Day!
What does geometry have to do with flow measurement? Quite a lot, although it may not be so obvious at first glance. In order to calculate the volume of flow that flows through a pipe, we need to know the area of the pipe. And si…lnkd.in/ePrQFq3f

For many years, I've questioned why Coriolis flowmeters are called "Coriolis" meters. I even wrote an article for Flow Control in 2011 arguing they should be called "inertial mass meters," and discussing whether they embody the Coriolis principle. You can…lnkd.in/eF_y4Kr5
