The application of electromagnetic flowmeters in multiple industrial fields

The electromagnetic flowmeter operates based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. When a conductive liquid moves in a magnetic field to cut the magnetic field lines, it will generate an induced electromotive force in a direction perpendicular to the magnetic field and the flow direction. The flow rate of the fluid can be calculated by measuring the magnitude of this electromotive force. Its unique working principle makes it widely and crucially applied in industrial fields such as petroleum, chemical engineering, metallurgy, light textile, papermaking, environmental protection and food.
