Flowmeter in which flow rate is determined by measuring the position and thus the displacement of an internal float acted upon by the flowing fluid determines the flow rates of various liquid metals at elevated temperatures. Viscous forces cause the float to move from its mounted position, affording several means for measuring this motion and the flow rate.
Instrumentation for measuring pressure drop and void fractions in metal liquid-vapor flows
Superheat associated with alkali metal boiling in free convection loop
SNAP-8 instrumentation, emphasizing selection and installation of aerospace type transducers for liquid metal service
