Why RTD Sensors Must Be Installed Downstream of Orifice Plates

Why RTD Sensors Must Be Installed Downstream of Orifice Plates

Installing an RTD upstream of an orifice plate corrupts differential pressure readings through thermowell vortex shedding. This article explains the von Kármán vortex street physics, ISO 5167 and ASME MFC-3M downstream placement requirements, the 5D minimum spacing rule, thermowell wake frequency compliance, and a 7-step installation procedure for combined orifice plate and RTD assemblies.
