REMOTE FLOW RATE MEASURING
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of remote measuring of flow rate using a measured element rotating in response to flow, the method comprising:
- identifying one or more properties associated with a measured element rotating in response to flow;
remotely measuring rotational speed of the measured element using an electronic device including a processor; and
calculating a flow rate using the one or more properties associated with the measured element and the rotational speed of the measured element using the processor.

Abstract
The methods and systems described herein can be used for remote measuring of flow rate from a multitude of different flow meters without requiring each flow meter to be capable of onboard processing and displaying of flow rate information. A single electronic device can be used to remotely measure the flow rate of a multitude of different flow meters.
