Numerical and experimental analysis of flow distortion induced by ultrasonic transducers in gas flowmeters

Abstract This study investigates the flow field distribution near the transducer and quantifies the distortion of the velocity profile along ultrasonic paths. It elucidates the physical mechanisms through which flow separation—induced by the mainstream flow around the transducer—affects ultrasonic f...
