in a rotameter what force other than gravity can equilibrate the float when a fluid force is applied to the float

Solution

Rotameters can be calibrated for other fluids by understanding the basic operating principles. Rotameter accuracy is determined by the accuracy of the pressure, temperature, and flow control during the initial calibration. Any change in the density and weight of the float will have impacts on the rotameter\'s flow reading. Additionally any changes that would affect the fluid such as pressure or temperature will also have an affect on the rotameter\'s accuracy. Given this, rotameters should be calibrated yearly to correct for any changes in the system that may have occurred.
