โฆ Synopsis
Detectors are included in the analysis of Coriolis mass flowmeters with straight vibrating pipe segments. The effect of the detector masses is worked out on the one hand by perturbation methods supported by computer algebra and on the other by the finite element method. The predictions of both methods agree almost perfectly. They show that care has to be taken in choosing the position of the detectors, because this position may have strong implications for the accuracy to which the calibration of the instrument remains independent of the fluid density.

In this paper a fuller and clearer derivation of the weight vector theory of Coriolis mass flowmeters is given indicating its potential for the prediction of velocity profile effects in both the traditional kind of meter (vibrating tube) and the compact kind (vibrating element inside a duct).
A simple analytical method is introduced to calculate the sensitivity of Coriolis mass flowmeter (CMF). The definition of the sensitivity is further developed based on the reciprocity principle, through employing two approaches: selecting the moment when the displacement of drive point is zero as th
