Gee, I hate to be obvious but you might help yourself by being a little more specific in your question to us. What kind of flow are you measuring? Here's a list of possible flows measured by mankind:

  1. Electron flow in a wire
  2. Fluid flow in a pipe
  3. Water flow in a river
  4. Gas flow in a pipe
  5. Air flow over a wing
  6. Magnetic field flow in free space
  7. Cattle through a corral yard
  8. Passenger traffic across Manhattan island
  9. Impertinent questioners to this forum
  10. Solar wind
  11. Heat transfer across a solid media
  12. Blood through an artery, vein, heart, lung, or cancerous tumor
  13. Concepts spreading across civilization
  14. Glacial ice migration
  15. Lava flow

Now that I've briefly touched on some of the myriad of measured flows known to mankind, you might also ponder how to measure, record and respond. Please know at least these few things before asking anybody for help. And remember to tell them at least what you do know. For the best way to not seem foolish is to not act like a fool.

GA to you!

However, I am afraid that the thread operner does neither understand your questions nor the "hint" about people understanding binary figures

Hi

first of all u should know what is your communication system, filed bus , hart , smart, then the range of variable you would like to measure , after that you should make the orifice plate calculation

i think for commmuissioning you must know range and communication type , about the factor it is depending in the pipe dimension, material density

this link may be help you
