Elliptical Pitot Tube for Water Flow Measurement
A Better Alternative to the Simplex Type Pitot Tube
Water flow rate is often a critical measurement for various power plant components and systems including cooling towers, pumps, and condensers. For over 40 years the Simplex-type Pitot Tube has been the industry standard for accurate water flow measurement, however the Simplex Tube is no longer commercially available. In addition, the results of from Simplex Tubes have long been suspect in the most challenging flow situations. Under contract to the Cooling Technology Institute (CTI), CleanAir conducted a research study to identify alternative pitot designs (CTI Case Study). This work culminated in 2017 with the introduction of the Elliptical Pitot Tip. Calibration services are available across a variety of flow settings and fluid velocities. CleanAir will supply a procedure for how to measure flow and a flow calculation spreadsheet for pitot station calculation and flow calculation consistent with CTI methodology with each pitot tube or pitot stinger purchase.
