  2. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

    As the magnets in the blades spin past the sensor, the paddle wheel meter generates a frequency and voltage signal which is proportional to the flow rate. The faster the flow the higher the frequency and the voltage output. The paddle wheel meter is designed to be inserted into a pipe fitting, either 'in-line' or insertion style.

  3. Paddle wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paddle_wheel

    The paddle wheel is a device for converting between rotary motion of a shaft and linear motion of a fluid. In the linear-to-rotary direction, it is placed in a fluid stream to convert the linear motion of the fluid into rotation of the wheel. Such a rotation can be used as a source of power, or as an indication of the speed of flow.

    A water wheel in Erlangen, Germany The reversible water wheel powering a mine hoist in De re metallica (Georgius Agricola, 1566) The sound of the Otley waterwheel, at Manchester Museum of Science and Industry. A water wheel is a machine for converting the kinetic energy of flowing or falling water into useful forms of power, often in a watermill.

  5. Level sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_sensor

    Rotating paddle level sensors are a very old and established technique for bulk solid point level indication. The technique uses a low-speed gear motor that rotates a paddle wheel. When the paddle is stalled by solid materials, the motor is rotated on its shaft by its own torque until a flange mounted on the motor contacts a mechanical switch.

  6. Marine propulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_propulsion

    The paddle wheel is a large wheel, generally built of a steel framework, upon the outer edge of which are fitted numerous paddle blades (called floats or buckets). The bottom quarter or so of the wheel travels underwater. Rotation of the paddle wheel produces thrust, forward or backward as required.

  7. Pelton wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelton_wheel

    A wheel power divided by the initial jet power, is the turbine efficiency, η = 4u(V i − u)/V i 2. It is zero for u = 0 and for u = V i. As the equations indicate, when a real Pelton wheel is working close to maximum efficiency, the fluid flows off the wheel with very little residual velocity. [11]
