He II flowmetering

Description
Flowmetering methods for He II are reviewed with emphasis on problems particular to this unique fluid. The flowmetering of He II is unusual because the fluid possesses a number of special properties: a high rate of heat conductivity, a low temperature (T < 2.2 K) and a high susceptibility to cavitation. Methods developed for metering He II flow include turbine flowmeters, venturis, fluidic flowmeters and flowmeters based on propagation of temperature or pressure pulses. (author)
