Question

Vortex shedding can be used to design a vortex flowmeter
(Fig. 6.34). A blunt rod stretched across the pipe sheds
vortices whose frequency is read by the sensor downstream.
Suppose the pipe diameter is 5 cm and the rod is a
cylinder of diameter 8 mm. If the sensor reads 5400 counts
per minute, estimate the volume flow rate of water in m 3 /h.
How might the meter react to other liquids?
