  • Sludge flow measuring system
    Patent number: 9926925
    Abstract: A sludge flow monitoring system and method measures volume of sludge pumped by a positive displacement pump through a pipeline by determining a fill percentage during each pumping cycle. The start and end of each piston stroke are identified by hydraulic system sensors. The fill percentage is determined based upon a first summation of periodic piston speed command values from the start of a pumping stroke to the end of a pumping stroke, and a second summation of periodic piston speed command values from a poppet valve opening indicating output flow from the pump to the end of the pumping stroke.
