Do you know what Karman vortex is?

In fluid dynamics, a Karman vortex street is a repeating pattern of swirling vortices caused by the unsteady separation of flow of a fluid around blunt bodies.

In 1950's,Karman vortex street was Badman which swung chimneys and submarines. However, in order to apply it to flow measurement, U.S.-Japan researched together in 1960's.Now it is used all over the world.

<Feature of fluid meter using Karman vortex>
1.There is no moving elements such as impeller that rust and water stain are resisted.
2.It can work stably due to wide flow range.

CKD developed original flow sensor (compact, easy operation, degree of protection IP65 and water temperature measuring) utilized the characteristics of Karman vortex.
It must be helpful in bad conditions.
