“…The highest number of them is based on the detection of pressure fluctuations near the bluff body (traditional, or conventional vortex flow meter). These pressure variations caused by separation of vortices, can be detected by different sensors: differential pressure sensors, piezoelectric sensors, capacitive sensors, thermo-resistance sensors, strain gauge force sensors etc [5,9,17,19,20,22,26]. Different shapes of the bluff body with different characteristic dimension (size), and different blockage ratio (relation between size of the bluff body and pipe diameter d/D) are considered [26,[30][31][32].…”
