  • Pressure compensation for a vibrating flowmeter and related method
    Patent number: 11162832
    Abstract: A method for calibrating a flowmeter (5) is provided. A relationship between a flow calibration factor and a pressure coefficient for a class of flowmeter is determined. A unique flow calibration factor is then determined for a flowmeter (5). A unique pressure coefficient for the flowmeter (5) is determined, and the unique pressure coefficient is applied to the flowmeter (5).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 4, 2016
    Date of Patent: November 2, 2021
    Assignee: Micro Motion, Inc.
    Inventors: Andrew G. Kolbeck, Aart R. Pruysen, Dean M. Standiford, Jacob Andreas Sinte Maartensdijk

  • Aluminum borophosphate glass compositions
    Patent number: 4127415
    Abstract: Novel glass compositions are provided which are enclosed by the iso-composition lines, 2 and 18 mole percent P.sub.2 O.sub.5, 30 and 70 mole percent Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and 20 and 60 mole percent B.sub.2 O.sub.3. The compositions can contain the usual oxide modifiers. These composition are characterized by refractive indices between about 1.47 and 1.58, densities between about 2.1 and 2.7 gm/cm.sup.3, thermal expansion coefficients between about 26 .times. 17.sup.-7 /C.degree. and 55 .times. 10.sup.-7 /C.degree., and glass transition points of between about 600 and 820.degree. C.

  • Optical fibers formed of aluminum borophosphate glass compositions
    Patent number: 4110002
    Abstract: Novel optical fibers are formed from glass compositions enclosed by the iso-composition lines, 2 and 18 mole percent P.sub.2 O.sub.5, 30 and 70 mole percent Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and 20 and 60 mole percent B.sub.2 O.sub.3 or glass compositions bounded by lines connecting the compositions 28 m% Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 -- 72 m% P.sub.2 O.sub.5 -- 0 m% B.sub.2 O.sub.3 ; 5 m% Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 -- 45 m% P.sub.2 O.sub.5 -- 50 m% B.sub.2 O.sub.3 ; 10 m% Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 -- 30 m% P.sub.2 O.sub.5 -- 60 m% B.sub.2 O.sub.3 and 42 m% Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 -- 58 m% P.sub.2 O.sub.5 -- 0 m% B.sub.2 O.sub.3. The glass compositions forming the optical fibers can contain the usual oxide modifiers.
