Case the connecting link of low thermal stress of the straight tube Coriolis flowmeter

摘要

Case connect links of a straight tube Coriolis flowmeter couple a balance bar/flow tube junction to the flow tube case. Each case connect link has at least one out of plane bend in its surface to allow the case connect link to expand/contract in response to temperature differentials between the internal elements of the flowmeter. The expansion/contraction permitted by the out of plane bend prevents structural damage to the case connect link as well as to the flowmeter elements to which it is connected.
