  • Patent number: 10816379
    Abstract: A device for measuring through-flow processes of fluids. The device includes an inlet, an outlet, a flow housing in which a fluid flows, a drivable displacement meter in the flow housing, a bypass line which bypasses the drivable displacement meter, a pressure difference sensor in the bypass line and in the flow housing, an evaluation and control unit which controls the drivable displacement meter based on a pressure difference existing at the pressure difference sensor, and a cooling channel in the flow housing which has a coolant flow therethrough.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 15, 2016
    Date of Patent: October 27, 2020
    Assignee: AVL LIST GMBH
    Inventors: Otfried Derschmidt, Heribert Kammerstetter, Manfred Pross
  • Publication number: 20190353510
    Abstract: An electronics unit for a flow meter which includes a housing. The electronics unit includes a motherboard which controls the flow meter, at least one additional circuit board with additional electronic components, an electric plug connection arranged between the motherboard and the at least one additional circuit board, a connection box in which the at least one additional circuit board is fastened, and an electrical plug connection which connects the at least one additional circuit board to the motherboard in an electrically detachable manner. The motherboard is secured in the housing of the flow meter. The connection box is mechanically secured to the housing of the flow meter in a detachable manner.

  • Patent number: 10094378
    Abstract: A system for measuring temporally resolved through-flow processes of a fluid. The system includes an inlet, a main line comprising a line section, an outlet fluidically connected with the inlet via the main line, a displacement device arranged in the main line, a circuitous line which branches off the main line between the inlet and the displacement device and to enter the main line between the displacement device and the outlet, a pressure difference transducer arranged in the circuitous line, an evaluation and control unit which controls the displacement device, and a bypass line comprising a pump and a sensor. The bypass line branches off from the main line or from the circuitous line and ends at a same side of the displacement device and the pressure difference transducer to bypass the line section or the circuitous line from which the bypass line branches off.
