  • Systems and methods for monitoring and optimizing flare purge gas with a wireless rotameter
    Patent number: 10343195
    Abstract: A method for optimizing purge gas of a flare system includes measuring a flow of flare fluids within a flare system to obtain a measured flow value. The flow of the flare fluids is compared to a target flow to obtain a difference between the flow of the flare fluids and the target flow. A control valve is operated to amend a flow of purge gas and the steps of measuring a flow of flare fluids and comparing the flow of the flare fluids to the target flow are repeated until the flow of the purge gas is within a target range. A value of the flow of purge gas is measured and transmitted wirelessly to a control system.
