  2. Water metering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_metering

    Ultrasonic water meters use one or more ultrasonic transducer to send ultrasonic sound waves through the fluid to determine the velocity of the water. Since the cross-sectional area of the meter body is a fixed and known value, when the velocity of water is detected, the volume of water passing through the meter can be calculated with very high ...

  3. Level sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_sensor

    Hydrostatic pressure level sensors are submersible or externally mounted pressure sensors suitable for measuring the level of corrosive liquids in deep tanks or water in reservoirs. Typically, fluid level is determined by the pressure at the bottom of the fluid containment (tank or reservoir); the pressure at the bottom, adjusted for the ...

  4. Ultrasonic flow meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_flow_meter

    Schematic view of a flow sensor. An ultrasonic flow meter is a type of flow meter that measures the velocity of a fluid with ultrasound to calculate volume flow. Using ultrasonic transducers, the flow meter can measure the average velocity along the path of an emitted beam of ultrasound, by averaging the difference in measured transit time between the pulses of ultrasound propagating into and ...

  5. Ultrasonic transducer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_transducer

    A curvilinear array ultrasonic transducer for use in medical ultrasonography Inside construction of a Philips C5-2 128 element curved array ultrasound sensor. Ultrasonic transducers and ultrasonic sensors are devices that generate or sense ultrasound energy. They can be divided into three broad categories: transmitters, receivers and transceivers.

  6. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

    Because they are used for domestic water measurement, piston meters, also known as rotary piston or semi-positive displacement meters, are the most common flow measurement devices in the UK and are used for almost all meter sizes up to and including 40 mm (1 + 1 ⁄ 2 in). The piston meter operates on the principle of a piston rotating within a ...

    Can we imagine ourselves back on that awful day in the summer of 2010, in the hot firefight that went on for nine hours? Men frenzied with exhaustion and reckless exuberance, eyes and throats burning from dust and smoke, in a battle that erupted after Taliban insurgents castrated a young boy in the village, knowing his family would summon nearby Marines for help and the Marines would come ...

    "It had so many different genres mixed together that, truly, I thought, 'This could either be amazing or a f---ing disaster,'" Moore said of Ghost. "Either way, it's usually the kind of juice that ...

  9. Current meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_meter

    Both methods use a ceramic transducer to emit a sound into the water. Doppler instruments are more common. An instrument of this type is the Acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP), which measures the water current velocities over a depth range using the Doppler effect of sound waves scattered back from particles within the water column. The ...
