  • Electrolytic fluid flow rate method and apparatus
    Patent number: 4484582
    Abstract: A system for measuring the flow rate of electrolytic fluids includes a flow cell which has a cylindrical flow channel receptive of the fluid flow to be measured and a pair of spaced apart electrodes configured to conform to the cylindrical surface of the flow channel and to be flushed therewith. The electrodes are electrically conductive and inert to the fluid of the flow and a channel is configured to effect contact of the electrodes with the fluid flow for a desired range of flow measurement. A monopolar pulse train is applied across the electrodes to effect a cell impedance across the electrodes which is inversely proportional to the rate of flow.
