GOUDSMIT sensors generally consist of 2 parts: the processing path and the processing elements. Their basic principle is based on the photoelectric effect, converting changes in the measured variable into changes in optical signals, and then using photoelectric components to further convert non-electrical signals into electrical signals. The photoelectric effect refers to illuminating an object with light, which can be viewed as a stream of photons with specific energy bombarding the object. At this point, photon energy is transferred to electrons, with the entire energy of one photon being absorbed by one electron at once. After receiving the energy from the photon, the state of the electron changes, causing the illuminated object to produce a corresponding electrical effect. The photoelectric effect is typically divided into 3 categories: (1) The phenomenon where electrons escape from the surface of an object under the action of light is called the external photoelectric effect, such as in phototubes and photomultiplier tubes; (2) The phenomenon where the resistivity of an object changes under the action of light is called the internal photoelectric effect, such as in photoresistors and phototransistors; (3) The phenomenon where an object generates an electromotive force in a specific direction under the action of light is called the photovoltaic effect, such as in photocells.

GOUDSMIT sensor features

Currently, baffles can be designed according to the water flow rate to reduce water resistance caused by flow through the flow sensor, thereby reducing head loss in the water system. However, baffles subjected to long-term water impact still face fatigue issues, and setpoint drift may occur even if the flow value was calibrated at the factory. They are typically used in applications where precise protection of flow values is not required, i.e., for flow interruption protection when water flow in pipes is suddenly cut off. There are very few designs in China specifically for water-source heat pump units. The baffle type is specifically developed for water flow monitoring in water-loop/ground-source heat pump air conditioning units. It is equipped with different baffles for different pipe diameters. The water resistance of each baffle does not exceed 0.5 meters of water column, which is significantly lower than that of target-type sensors. Each baffle-type flow sensor is equipped with pipe fittings identical to those of the water-loop heat pump unit's water pipes. Only connection to the water pipe is required on-site, without any modification to the baffle. Additionally, the pressure rating of the baffle-type flow switch exceeds 25bar, making it a low-cost flow switch for water-loop heat pump units with less stringent flow requirements. Feedback from use in water-loop/ground-source heat pump units shows that differential pressure switches can effectively identify problems in the on-site installation of water pipelines for water-loop heat pump units, completely avoiding heat exchanger freezing due to low water flow. Flow sensors can also protect against heat exchanger freezing caused by reduced water flow due to clogged water filters. Furthermore, water pipeline differential pressure switches do not carry the risk of fatigue failure associated with target flow switches. Especially when there is a small amount of air in the water pipeline, the flow sensor operates very stably without the floating issues seen in target flow switches. Feedback from years of use has not revealed any failures of the differential pressure switch itself.

GOUDSMIT sensor principles

Basic principles and types of ultrasonic flowmeters: When ultrasonic waves propagate in a flowing fluid, they carry information about the fluid's flow velocity. Therefore, the fluid's flow velocity can be detected by receiving the ultrasonic waves, and thus converted into flow rate. Based on the detection method, ultrasonic flowmeters can be classified into different types such as transit-time difference method, Doppler method, beam deflection method, noise method, and correlation method. Ultrasonic flowmeters are non-contact instruments that have only begun to be applied in the last decade or so with the rapid development of integrated circuit technology. They are suitable for measuring fluids that are difficult to contact and observe, as well as large-diameter pipe flows. Linked with level gauges, they can measure open channel flow. Using ultrasonic flow measurement means no measuring elements need to be installed in the fluid, so the fluid's flow state is not altered, no additional resistance is generated, and instrument installation and maintenance do not affect production line operation, making it an ideal energy-saving flowmeter. Industrial flow measurement commonly faces difficulties in measuring large pipe diameters and high flow rates. This is because general flowmeters incur manufacturing and transportation difficulties, increased costs, and greater energy loss as the measurement pipe diameter increases. Ultrasonic flowmeters avoid these disadvantages. Since all types of ultrasonic flowmeters can be installed externally for non-contact flow measurement, the instrument cost is basically independent of the measured pipe diameter. In contrast, the cost of other types of flowmeters increases substantially with diameter. Therefore, the larger the diameter, the more superior the cost-performance ratio of ultrasonic flowmeters compared to other types with similar functions. They are considered excellent instruments for large-diameter flow measurement. Doppler method ultrasonic flowmeters can measure two-phase media flow, making them suitable for measuring dirty flows such as sewers and sewage. In power plants.

GOUDSMIT sensor selection

When selecting flow sensors, users should choose suitable sensors based on their own needs. Many users have different requirements for the sensors they use, so the selected standards vary. If highly professional data and results are needed, national standards should be selected. However, if the sensor is only used as a simple instrument within an enterprise for rough analysis, enterprise standards can be selected. When purchasing flow sensors, careful consideration is essential, and one should choose sensors with guaranteed quality and good usability. Many people assume that new sensors have higher technology, which is a one-sided view. New products must possess mature technology to be considered good products. In many economic sectors, accurate flow measurement has become very important. Nowadays, sensors are basically used to measure flow quantities. Sensors sense fluid flow and convert it into usable output signals, making operations simpler and more convenient. The quantity of flowing objects passing through per unit time is called flow rate. Different flow sensors are used for different objects, often distinguished by the measured medium and measurement method. Flow sensors are generally used for the flow of media fluids in industrial pipelines. Commonly, there are various media such as gases, liquids, and steam. Several types of flow sensors can be universally used for these various media. The first type is the vortex flow sensor. Another type is the ultrasonic flow sensor. With the development of ultrasonic technology, ultrasonic flow sensors can generally measure the flow of most flowing objects. Ultrasonic flow sensors have various measurement methods, each with its own characteristics. Selection should be based on factors such as the properties of the measured fluid, flow velocity distribution, pipeline installation location, and accuracy requirements. Since industrial flow measurement commonly faces difficulties in measuring large pipe diameters and high flow rates—because general flow sensors incur manufacturing and transportation difficulties, increased costs, and greater energy loss as the measurement pipe diameter increases—ultrasonic flowmeters avoid these disadvantages. The flow measurement accuracy of ultrasonic flow sensors is hardly affected by parameters such as the temperature, pressure, viscosity, and density of the measured fluid. They can also be made into non-contact and portable measuring instruments, thus solving flow measurement problems for strongly corrosive, non-conductive, radioactive, and flammable/explosive media that are difficult to measure with other types of instruments.
