Abstract: A water bike equipped with a speed meter wherein a speed meter sensor 1 including a coil for generating a magnetic flux and electrodes disposed at positions vertical to both flowing direction of a fluid and direction of the magnetic flux, and for measuring the speed of the water bike on water by the value of electromotive force generated by an electromagnetic induction operation, is fitted to a submerged portion of the water bike 2.

Abstract: A calorimeter using a remanence type electromagnetic flowmeter includes a core made of a semi-hard or hard magnetic material and having a property in which a remanent magnetic flux density is varied in proportion to a temperature, a coil excited intermittently to magnetize the core, a metallic pipe forming a fluid path, a yoke for conducting remanent magnetic flux of said core, the yoke being fixed to the outer surface of the metallic pipe in close contact therewith without forming an air gap therebetween, and a pair of electrodes attached to the inner surface of the metallic pipe through an insulator.

Abstract: A magnetic field generating device for an electromagnetic flowmeter of the residual magnetization type which comprises a pair of first yokes having one of their end faces disposed opposite to each other on both sides of a magnetic gap including a fluid conduit of a non-magnetic material, a core disposed between the other end faces of the first yokes, a coil wound around the core, and at least one second yoke in direct contact with at least one of the first yokes and in direct contact with the associated end face of the core. The second yokes are made of a magnetic material having low electrical conductivity and high permeability. The core has an axial length shorter than that of the coil.

Abstract: An electromagnetic flowmeter has identical exciting coils coupled to portions which exhibit residual magnetism. A control circuit delivers short durations of current to each coil such that the current polarity in each coil determines the polarity of the magnetic flux across the conduit due to each residual magnetic portion. Four states of magnetic flux are repeatedly produced, zero, of one polarity, zero and of the other polarity. Flow note is determined by the difference between sampled voltages in a zero state and a directly succeeding state to eliminate noise components.
