We have got 2 columns in our plant. The flow from 1 column goes to another column through a 1" line.
The pressure of the upstream column is more than the downstream column and hence we are able to get the flow The columns are operating at 150 Degrees Centigrade
We want to measure the flow of the liquid going through the 1" Line. Actually the liquid flowing through the 1" line is a liquid with some amount of solids which is viscous in nature.
We had installed a Flanged Tap Orifice plate ( Segmental Orifice) to measure the flow but it did not work as the the tappings used to get choked frequently due to the solidification of the slurry material.
We even provided steam tracing at the tapping points but still the Orifice meter tapping points would get choked.
As Orifice Meter did not work. We tried the Magnetic Flow Meter (Rosemount Make 8700 Series ) but the flow measured by mag flow meter fluctuates over a wide range hence performance of magnetic flow meter was also unsatisfactory.
Somebody suggested to install Mircromotion Mass flow meter but i believe it will not work.
Can anyone suggest what type of flow measurement device should be used to measure the flow in such service which is comprising of Liquids with some
solids percentage.
