Vortex Flow Measuring System
prowirl 70
Reliable Flow Measurement of
Gas, Steam and Liquids

Prowirl 70
Measuring System
Applications
The Prowirl vortex flowmeter measures
the volumetric flow of fluids with widely
differing characteristics:
•Saturated steam
•Superheated steam
•Gases
•Low-viscosity liquids
Applications include:
•Energy production
•Chemical and petrochemical industry
•Food processing
•OEM
Prowirl measures the volumetric flow at
operating conditions. If the process
pressure and temperature are constant,
Prowirl can be programmed to display
the flow rate in mass, thermal, or cor-
rected volume units.
In case of varying process conditions,
the universal Compart DXF 351 flow
computer calculates these values contin-
ually on the basis of signals from Prowirl
and additional pressure and/or tempera-
ture transmitters.
Measuring System
A measuring system consists of:
•Prowirl 70 transmitter
(compact or remote)
•Prowirl W, F, H, or D meter body
(see page 3)
The high performance, universal Prowirl
70 transmitter can be freely combined
with the various, proven meter body
styles. This guarantees flexibility when
matching a complete meter to specific
industrial process conditions.
Prowirl 70 Transmitter
The new Prowirl 70 transmitter has the
following features:
•Microprocessor-controlled
•Self-monitoring and diagnosis of
electronics and sensor
•Separate wiring compartment
•IP 65 protection type
•Built-in electromagnetic interference
immunity (EMC)
•Programmable meter body thermal
expansion coefficients
•4...20 mA current output
•Open collector output, configurable
for pulses, alarm or limit switch
(not with Ex d version)
•Optional digital display with bargraph
for rate and total
Local Programming
All functions can be set and all values
can be read at the meter using four
pushbuttons, even in hazardous areas,
and without opening the housing.
Prowirl is delivered factory-programmed,
but viewing or selection of the individual
functions is easily done using a simple
menu and the local display. Examples
are:
•Engineering units
•Current output functions
•Open collector functions
•Display mode (local)
•System parameters
Digital Communication
•SMART technology permits remote
programming of Prowirl 70 via HART
protocol, using the HART DXR 275
handheld.
•With the E+H Intensor protocol,
Prowirl 70 can be run with the
Commutec system, making the system
integration to Modbus, Profibus and
FIP systems possible.
Using the Commuwin II program or a
Commubox modem, the measured
values and functions can be read or
changed via a PC.

Meter Body
Construction
Prowirl F (Flanged, DN 15...300)
This design offers the following advant-
ages:
•An anchored and welded bluff body
assures high resistance to water
hammer in steam lines.
DN 15...150:
•Quality stainless steel casting
•Dye-penetrant tested
•Burst pressure >700 bar
•Standardised DVGW/ISO meter
lengths
DN 200...300:
Welded design, standard with slip-on
flanges.
Prowirl W (Wafer, DN 15...150)
This space saving wafer version is
centered easily with the help of a
mounting set. All nominal diameters
have the same 65 mm width (see
page 6).
Prowirl D (Dualsens, DN 15...300)
For special requirements, the Prowirl
vortex meter is available with two inde-
pendent sensors and electronics. Both
sensors are built into the same meter
body and, therefore, share the same
K factor.
Applications:
•For facilities with high redundancy
requirements.
•For processes where two separate
flowmeters would normally be re-
quired, one for control and one for
alarm purposes.
•For the measurement of liquid and
gas in the same pipeline (single phase
only), without reprogramming the
transmitter.
•For higher signal resolution over two
different measurement ranges.
Prowirl H (High Pressure DN 15...150)
Specially developed meter body and
sensor for use at high pressures and for
high safety requirements.
•Flange version (DIN: PN 64, 100, 160,
250 and ANSI: Class 600, 900, 1500)
•Butt-weld version (ANSI Class 1500)

Function Measuring Principle
The operating principle is based on the
Karman vortex street. When a fluid flows
past a bluff body, vortices are alter-
nately formed on the sides of that body
and are then detached or shed by the
flow. The frequency of vortex shedding
is proportional to the mean flow velocity
and, therefore, to the volumetric flow
(with Re > 4000).
Alternating pressure changes caused
by the vortices are transmitted via
lateral port holes in the bluff body.
The DSC sensor is located within the
bluff body and is well protected from
water hammer and temperature or
pressure shocks.
The capacitive DSC sensor detects the
pressure pulses and converts them into
electrical signals.
Vortex frequency = St •v
d
St= Strouhal number
v = velocity of medium
d = width of bluff body
The sensor preamplifier processes the
sinusoidal sensor signal into a flow-
proportional pulse frequency.
This is then converted by the transmitter
(or flow computer) into a standard
output signal.
The same sensor and electronics are
used for all nominal diameters, fluids,
and process temperatures. The sensor
signal is galvanically isolated in the
preamplifier from the output signal.
DSC Sensor
Vibration Compensation
With Prowirl’s DSC sensor, the general
sensitivity of vortex meters to pipeline
vibration has been eliminated. Using
primary, built-in vibration compensation,
pipeline vibration with amplitudes of up
to 1g and frequencies to 500 Hz will not
affect the measurement, regardless of
the axis of acceleration. The compensa-
tion is permanent, and no adjustments
are neccessary.

Planning
and Installation
Inlet and Outlet Sections
An undisturbed flow profile is a pre-
requisite for accurate vortex flow
measurement. This can be ensured
through sufficient inlet and outlet pipe
sections.
•Inlet sections: min. 10 x DN
•Outlet sections: min. 5 x DN
Where flow disturbances such as pipe
elbows, reducers, valves, etc. are
located upstream of the vortex meter,
longer upstream pipe sections are
required.
If possible any valves should be
installed after the flowmeter.
Note:
Where two or more disturbances are lo-
cated upstream of the meter, the longest
recommended upstream pipe section is
to be observed.
Flow Conditioner
With limited space and large pipes, it is
not always possible to have the inlet
sections given above.
The specially developed perforated
plate flow rectifier can reduce the inlet
path to 10 x DN.
The flow rectifier is held between two
piping flanges and centred with the
flange bolts.
It rectifies distorted flow profiles effi-
ciently with very little pressure loss.
Flow conditioner pressure loss
calculation:
∆p [mbar] = 0.0085 ⋅ρ[kg/m3] ⋅v2[m/s]
•Example with steam:
p = 10 bar abs.; t = 240 °C ⇒ρ = 4.39 kg/m3
v = 40 m/s
∆p = 0.0085 ⋅4.39 kg/m3 ⋅(40 m/s)2=
59.7 mbar
•Example with H2O condensate (80 °C)
ρ= 965 kg/m3; v = 2.5 m/s
∆p = 0.0085 ⋅965 kg/m3⋅(2.5 m/s)2=
51.3 mbar
The following installation recommendations are to be observed when installing
Prowirl in the pipeline. In order to maintain the specified accuracy for all fluids and
process conditions, the inner diameters of the meter or meter flange and the
process piping should be identical. Specification of the correct process piping inner
diameter or standard (DIN, ANSI Schedule 10/40/80 etc.) will avoid the need for
calculated K factor corrections.

Planning and
Installation
Installation Site
The Prowirl measuring system can
basically be mounted in any position,
although for extremes of process
temperatures, the following orientations
are recommended:
High process temperatures (e.g. steam):
•Horizontal pipeline: install according
to C or D
•Vertical pipeline: install according to A
Low process temperatures
(e.g. cryogenics):
•Horizontal pipeline: install according
to B or D
•Vertical pipeline: install according to A
Pressure and temperature transmitters
are to be positioned downstream of the
meter, so that optimum vortex shedding
is not affected (see adjacent figure).
Note!
•For liquid measurement, ensure the
pipeline is always full. Therefore, flow
should be upward in vertical pipelines.
•Install a gas separator if gas bubbles
are expected.
•Free-standing pipes subject to strong
vibration (>1g) should be supported
upstream and downstream of the
meter.
•Keep within the maximum specified
ambient and process temperatures
(see page 22).
Pipeline Insulation
Pipeline insulation is necessary to pre-
vent energy loss in hot and cryogenic
processes. When insulating Prowirl,
ensure sufficient pipe stand surface
area is exposed (see adjacent figure).
The exposed area serves as a radiator
and protects the electronics from
extreme heat or cooling. This applies
to both compact and remote versions.
Mounting Set
Accurate centering of wafer-style
meters, essential for specified accuracy,
is achieved with the use of a mounting
set which consists of:
1 Bolts
2 Washers
3 Nuts
4 Centering rings
5 Gaskets

Planning and
Installation
Minimum Spacing
In service cases it may be neccessary
to unplug the electronics housing from
the pipe stand. When installing, observe
the following spacing:
•Minimum space required to unplug
the electronics housing: 120 mm;
all other sides 100 mm
•Allowing 150 mm of slack cable will
permit the above without having to
disconnect the wiring.
The following minimum spacing require-
ments apply to the remote version:
•Remote transmitter housing: 50 mm
•Flow meter: 120 mm
Compact version
The housing can be rotated 340°,
permitting display viewing in all mounted
positions.
Within the housing, the display itself can
be rotated in 90° steps.
Remote version
Both the remote transmitter housing and
the meter housing can be rotated 340°.

Measuring Ranges,
Nominal Diameters
Selecting the Nominal Diameter
The following are used to determine the
measuring range and nominal diameter:
•Tables (e.g. for saturated steam
measuring ranges)
•Measuring range diagrams
(for superheated steam, gases, and
liquids)
•"Applicator" software
The Prowirl vortex flowmeter determines
the volumetric flow under operating
conditions (e.g. m3/h), i.e. the effective
volume at a particular operating press-
ure (e.g. 20 bar).
Gas volumes are highly dependent on
pressure and temperature.
Gas quantities are, therefore, usually
given at standard temperature and
pressure (Nm3at 1.013 bar, 0 °C)
and steam quantities in kg or tons.
Calculating the volumes under operat-
ing conditions is done using the
following equations and tables (see
following pages).
"Applicator" Design Software
All important transmitter data are
contained in this E+H software for the
most efficient design of the measuring
system. The equations used for calculat-
ing the properties of steam are the
latest available according to IAPS
(International Association for the
Properties of Steam).
The Applicator software makes light
work of the following calculations:
•Conversion of the operating volume of
gas into a corrected volume
•Conversion to the mass flow of steam
using temperature and/or pressure
variables
•Calculation with viscosity included
•Calculation of pressure drop accross
the flowmeter
•Simultaneous display of calculations
for various nominal diameters
•Determining measuring ranges
The software runs on any IBM
compatible PC.
Calculations
Flow Values
The actual values for maximum and
minimum flow depend mainly on the
following factors:
•The Reynolds number (describing the
flow condition) must be above 4000
•The fluid density determines the upper
and lower flow limits as described
below (“Minimum and Maximum
Volumetric Flow Qmin/Qmax”)
•Cavitation must be avoided (for liquids)
On the following pages different tables
are given for various typical applica-
tions. Those tables can be used as a
guideline for a first estimate of the
measuring range. Please contact your
Endress+Hauser sales organisation for
exact dimensioning of the meter for your
specific application.

Measuring Ranges
Superheated Steam
and Gas Volumetric/Mass Flow (V/m)
m [kg/h] = V [m3/h] •ρ[kg/m3]
V [m3/h] = m [kg ⁄h]
ρ[kg ⁄m3]
Example for Superheated Steam
To determine:
Nominal diameter to measure super-
heated steam at 250 °C and 15 bar abs.
at a flowrate of 10 t/h.
Calculation:
a) Convert t/h ⇒ m3/h using the density
of steam (6.58 kg/m3) from the table.
V [m3/h] = m
ρ= 10000 kg⁄h
6.58 kg ⁄m3= 1520 m3/h
b) Select the nominal diameter in the
steam/gas measuring range diagram
below for V = 1520 m3/h ⇒DN 100.
For ρ= 6.58 kg/m3the initial value for
the measuring range is 90 m3/h as the
initial value is dependent on the density.
This gives a measuring range of
90...2430 m3/h or 590...15990 kg/h.
Corrected/Operating Volume (VC/VO)
VO [m3/h] = VC[Nm3 ⁄h] •TO[K]
273.15 K •PO[bar abs.]
VC[Nm3/h] = VO[m3 ⁄h] •273.15 K •PO[bar abs.]
TO[K] •1.013 bar
Corrected/Operating Density (ρC/ρO)
ρO[kg/m3]= ρC[kg ⁄Nm3] •PO[bar abs.] •273.15 K
TO[K]
ρC[kg/Nm3] = ρO[kg ⁄m3] •TO[K]
PO[bar abs.] •273.15 K
TO= operating temperature
PO= operating pressure

Density is an important parameter for many calculations, e.g. in corrected volumes.
The density of steam as a function of temperature and pressure can be determined
from the following table.

Measuring Ranges
Liquids
Example for Liquids
To determine:
Nominal diameter (DN) for measuring a
flow of 50 m3/h of liquid with a density of
0.8 kg/dm3and a kinematic viscosity of
2 cSt.
Note: This diagram serves as a guideline
for a quick estimation of Prowirl measur-
ing ranges. Your E+H sales organisation
will be pleased to help select and
dimension a flowmeter for your applica-
tion.
Calculation:
Select the nominal diameter from the
measuring range diagram for liquids
V = 50 m3/h ⇒ DN 50.
For ρ= 0.8 kg/dm3 and a kinematic
viscosity of 2 cSt, the initial value of the
measuring range is 1.8 m3/h.
This results in a measuring range of
1.8...75.6 m3/h or 1440...60480 kg/h.
Pressure Drop Example for Saturated Steam
To determine:
Pressure loss for a saturated steam flow
of 8 t/h (12 bar abs.) with a nominal
diameter DN 80.
Calculation:
Convert kg/h ⇒ m3/h using steam den-
sity (6.13 kg/m3) from page 11.
V [m3/h] = m
ρ= 8000 kg⁄h
6.13 kg⁄m3= 1305 m3/h
Pressure drop:
∆p[mbar] = coefficient C ⋅ density ρ[kg/m3]
Determine the C coefficient from the
following table:
For V = 1305 m3/h and DN = 80 ⇒ C = 55
∆p= C ⋅ρ= 55 ⋅6.13 kg/m3 ⇒337 mbar
Note: This diagram serves as a guideline
for a quick estimation of Prowirl measur-
ing ranges. Your E+H sales organisation
will be pleased to help you select and
dimension a flowmeter for your applica-
tion.
