The Use of Beer Flow Meter in Beer Production Process

In the main technological process of beer production. For effective control in the production process. It is necessary to measure and control the intermediate raw materials – wort, sake in semi-finished products, raw juice wine in high-concentration dilution process, sterile carbonated water, final product filling and waste water generated during production.

Raw material allocation: During the preparation of raw materials for beer production. The main measurement parameters are weight and level.

Wort production: Wort is an important intermediate raw material for beer production. Its measurement involves the handover settlement between the front and rear processes (workshops), which is extremely important. Especially when the front and rear process workshops are separately accounted for. The measurement results are related to the completion of the respective production and economic indicators. Therefore, this measurement point is very important and sensitive, and accuracy is its primary indicator.

Wort has a certain viscosity, but there is no difficulty in the measurement of electromagnetic flowmeter. What needs to be considered is corrosion during the process. The flowmeter used at this measurement point can consider the electromagnetic flowmeter with PTFE lining (or PFA) and stainless steel electrode. It can prevent the corrosion of dilute hydrogen peroxide and alkaline water. Usually the diameter is between 50 and 100mm. The diameter of the flowmeter can be determined according to the flow rate and the matching process piping.

Fermentation: Sake that has been fermented and filtered. It will be transported to the next process through the pipeline – packaging. It also involves the custody transfer of the two departments. Accurate measurement of sake is also extremely important, otherwise unnecessary disputes will arise. The requirements for flow meters are similar to those for wort metering.

High concentration dilution: due to different production processes. Some beers are produced by blending high-strength ale. This requires strict control of the ratio of high-concentration original wine and sterile carbonated water. Guarantee the degree of beer after mixing.

In each production line, two electromagnetic flowmeters are required for proportional flow control. Generally, the diameter of the flowmeter for measuring wine is 50-100mm. The flowmeter for measuring water is 20-50mm. Depends on production scale. In order to ensure that the instrument has a high measurement accuracy. It should be ensured that the fluid velocity is above 1m/s. Make the flow measurement in the best working range of the instrument. At the same time, the time constant of the flowmeter should also be set smaller, generally 1 to 3s. In order to improve the sensitivity of the control and ensure the accuracy of the proportioning.

Flow meters in the production process of the beer industry have their own special requirements. For example, it is necessary to avoid the reproduction of bacteria, to facilitate frequent cleaning and to withstand the disinfection of corrosive alkaline water and hydrogen peroxide under higher temperature conditions. Specific requirements are as follows:

1. The sensor measurement circuit is simple. There are no obstructions and parts that tend to retain media.
2. All the parts and materials in contact with the medium meet the requirements of food hygiene. Such as compliance with FDA (US Food and Drug Administration), EHEDG (European Health Equipment Design Organization) requirements.
3. The parts in contact with the medium can withstand the temperature crash and corrosion when cleaning with steam, alkaline water and hydrogen peroxide.
4. When used in filling process, it should have fast response performance and high measurement accuracy.
5. Can adapt to low temperature (about 2 ℃) and humid working environment.

Vortex flowmeter for the volume of wet gas

When using a vortex flowmeter to measure gas flow, many wet gases are often encountered, such as wet air, wet gas, and wet chlorine.

Read more about: How Vortex Flow Meter measure efficiently? For steam, gas, liquid 

Physically, the commonly used mixture of water vapor and gas is called a mixed gas with certain humidity, that is, wet gas.

In wet gas, the density of water vapor constitutes a part of the density of the wet gas. However, in many cases, what needs to be measured and calculated is the volume or mass of dry gas. For example, this is the case when determining the heating value.

There are also wet air, wet chlorine, etc., as industrial raw gas. What companies need is a dry gas, so the “moisture” of these wet gases should be squeezed out when measuring, in order to better control the quality of products. Calculate the cost of the product.

The density of the wet gas is composed of the dry part of the wet gas and the water vapor contained in the wet gas. When the vortex flowmeter is used to measure the flow of the wet gas, because the vortex flowmeter only reflects the wet gas in the working state The volume flow rate cannot distinguish between the dry part of the wet gas and the amount of water vapor. Therefore, the volume flow measured by the vortex flowmeter is the volume flow of all wet gas. If only the volume flow rate of the dry part of the wet gas needs to be measured, the volume flow rate of the water vapor part should also be subtracted.

When using a vortex flowmeter to measure the flow of wet gas, because the vortex flowmeter only reflects the volume flow of the wet gas under working conditions, it cannot distinguish the dry part of the wet gas and the amount of water vapor.

Therefore, the volume flow measured by the vortex flowmeter is the volume flow of all wet gas. If only the volume flow rate of the dry part of the wet gas needs to be measured, the volume flow rate of the water vapor part should also be subtracted.

Precautions for measuring wet gas with vortex flowmeter

(1) Instrument selection

For the wet gas in the industrial gas, when the water vapor reaches the saturated state, water in the free state will appear in the pipeline. This state has a certain impact on the normal operation of the thermal and ultrasonic vortex flowmeters.

If the water in the free state adheres to the surface of the thermal detection element, it will affect the thermal conductivity of the thermistor element. It will affect the detection sensitivity and the lower limit of the range of the instrument.

If the water in the free state adheres to the surface of the ultrasonic transducer, it will also affect the transmission and reception of ultrasound. It will not only affect the transmission efficiency of ultrasound, but also the effect and sensitivity of ultrasound reception.

If this free water stays in the acoustic isolation annulus between the ultrasonic transducer and the tube wall, it will cause an acoustic “short circuit” phenomenon. Ultrasonic waves will diffract along the measuring tube wall and reach the opposite receiving transducer. The normal operation of the instrument was severely damaged.

If the water in the free state passes through the sound beam in the form of water droplets or mist, it will scatter and modulate the sound beam. It will become a serious random interference and affect the stability of the measurement.

Due to the above influences, when measuring wet gas flow, vortex flowmeters with force-sensitive detection should be used. For example, stress vortex flowmeters and capacitive vortex flowmeters. Because of the moisture in the wet gas and the free water, It has little influence on force detection and transmission.

(2) Prevent the corrosive effect of wet gas

Some gases such as chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, and so on. There is a certain degree of corrosiveness in the dry state, but the corrosiveness is not very strong. Once it becomes wet gas, its corrosive effect increases sharply. When selecting the meter, the vortex flowmeter that can withstand the corrosive effect of the medium should be selected in a targeted manner to prevent the invasion of wet gas.

Extended reading: Buy Digital Gas Flow Meters & Controllers For Air-O2-N2-CO2

(3) Installation method

When measuring wet gas with a vortex flowmeter.

If installed horizontally, the measuring section should be increased appropriately. Prevent saturated water from staying in the measuring tube of the instrument.
If installed vertically, the vortex flowmeter should be at a certain height from the horizontal pipe section.

(4) Operation and maintenance of the instrument

To prevent free water from accumulating in the pipe, a drain valve or drain valve should be installed at the lowest point of the pipe. Evacuate the sewage and dirt accumulated in the pipe regularly.

Digital LPG/Propane flow meter

A propane flow meter refers to a flow meter that can measure the volume or mass flow of propane gas. Also often called LPG gas flow meter.

CONTACT US

Featured Inline Propane Flow Meter

Propane is also generally referred to as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). So what is the difference and connection between propane and LPG? Next, let’s take a look together.

Propane VS LPG

Because propane is one of the main components of liquefied petroleum gas.

Propane is pure, and liquefied petroleum gas is a mixture.

LPG is a by-product obtained during the catalytic cracking and thermal cracking of crude oil in refineries.

The main source of commercial LPG is the processing and refining of natural gas and oil. The raw materials usually contain excessive amounts of propane and butane. To prevent these two substances from condensing in the high-pressure exhaust pipe, they must be removed.

In the petroleum refining process. LPG is collected by titration from the dissolved crude oil mixed with a lighter specific gravity. At the same time, it can also be produced by the molecular fission of heavy hydrocarbons. Therefore, LPG is considered a subsidiary product. Its exact composition and characteristics usually vary from source to source.

• Small size and lightweight, it is more convenient for offline calibration;
• The measurement signal can be displayed on the spot or transmitted remotely as required;

Why is Precession Vortex Gas Flowmeter the right Propane flow meter?

Before that, people would use vortex flowmeters to measure propane.
Although the precession vortex flowmeter and vortex flowmeter are all fluid vibration flowmeters. However, the precession vortex flowmeter has the following advantages:

1. The generated vortex signal is stronger than that of a vortex flowmeter, so the lower limit Reynolds number is lower. When measuring gas flow, the lower limit flow rate can be as low as (1.5～2) m/s.
2. Because the vortex signal generated by the flowmeter is stronger than that of the vortex flowmeter. It is less affected by the upstream choke than the vortex flowmeter. Therefore, the length of the upstream straight pipe is much shorter.
3. The meter coefficient K is 1 to 2 times larger than that of the vortex flowmeter.

Fuel oil refers to light distillate fuel oil and heavy distillate fuel oil obtained after crude oil is distilled and processed in a refinery. The former mainly includes gasoline, diesel and jet fuel used in crawling machinery and aircraft internal combustion engines. The latter is mainly used as boiler fuel for steam furnaces and various heating furnaces.

Fuel oil is a fuel used for engine operation, mainly divided into gasoline and diesel.

There are two main types of fuel for automobiles, gasoline and diesel.

The aircraft uses aviation kerosene.

The classification of gasoline is based on the octane number it contains, such as 90#, 97#, etc. The higher the octane number, the lower the probability of deflagration produced by the car, and the better it is for the engine. Therefore, most high-end cars use higher-grade gasoline.

The classification of diesel is based on its freezing point. 0# means that when the temperature is lower than 0 degrees Celsius, it will condense into a solid. The same reason -10# means that it condenses into a solid at -10 degrees Celsius. This is the reason why the diesel cars in the northern winter have a lower label to prevent the fuel from being frozen.

Fuel flow meter for diesel

Fuel flow meter for diesel

Three kinds of flow meters are commonly used to measure diesel:
The first is an oval gear flow meter, which is also commonly used, with an accuracy of 0.5.
The second type is liquid turbine flowmeter, the accuracy can be 0.5 or 0.2, flange or thread connection
The third type is float type, installed vertically or horizontally, with an accuracy of 1.5.

Although they all measure the flow of diesel oil products, the difference is still very large.

For example, dual-rotor flowmeters and oval gear flowmeters can measure diesel fuel. And various parameters are in line with the measurement range of these two flowmeters.

However, the measurement range of the dual-rotor flowmeter is very large and the noise is very low, and the accuracy is also high. Under the conditions of high precision and low precision, the liquid flow range is very large. However, the minimum pipe diameter is 25mm and the maximum is 300mm;

The oval gear flowmeter is different. The minimum pipe diameter is 6mm and the maximum is 200mm.

And the flow range is very wide. The most important thing is that the price is relatively cheap, which is the best choice for most customers.

How does micro motion flow meter work?

The micro-motion mass flowmeter is a flowmeter made according to the Coriolis acceleration theory. There is a straight tube that rotates in a plane around a fixed axis O at an angular velocity w, and a particle in the tube moves outwards along the straight tube at a speed v. Because The mass point m is in a system with both rotational motion and linear motion, so it will obtain two accelerations.

Serving size:

① Centripetal acceleration a, its value is rw^2 (r is the distance from the particle m to the axis O), and the direction points to the axis O.
② Tangential acceleration ac, its value is 2uw. The direction is perpendicular to a, it comes from the rotating pipe. At the same time it produces a reaction force to the pipe. This reaction force is the Coriolis force. Its calculation formula is:

F=2muw —————-(3-8)

Where:
F is Coriolis force, N;
w is the angular velocity, 1/s;
u is the radial velocity in the rotating system, m/s,
m is the mass of the moving object, kg.

If the density of the fluid is p, the tangential Coriolis force on any section of pipe △x is:

△F=2pA△xuw ———(3~9)

Where:
A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipe.

In the formula (3-9), pAu is the natural flow rate of the fluid, set as QM’, then the formula (3-9) can be expressed as:

△F= 2w△xQm————-(3-10)

From the above equation, we can know the mass flow Qm as long as the Coriolis force △F is measured. This is the measuring principle of micro-motion mass flowmeter.
