What is the difference between an electromagnetic flowmeter and a vortex flowmeter?

Answer:

The electromagnetic flowmeter is used to measure the flow volume by conducting magnetic fluid cutting the magnetic field lines, so it can only measure water, and it can not measure the water which is very low in the power plant.
The electromagnetic flowmeter is the flow field cutting the magnetic field lines to generate electric potential to determine the flow size; and the vortex flowmeter is inserted into the flow field to generate Carmen vortex, and the flow frequency is determined by measuring the vortex frequency.
The vortex accuracy is between 1 and 2%, and the caliber is 250mm. It can measure water or other liquids, vapors, and gases, and has a wider range of applications than electromagnetism.
The measurement accuracy is better than 0.5%, and the caliber is from 25mm to several meters. The vortex flowmeter is produced by the flow of fluid through a cylindrical body. The Carmen vortex is proportional to the frequency of the vortex, and the flow rate is obtained.
