Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electromagnetic flowmeter includes a yoke of a solenoid unit, which is accommodated in the interior of a body. The yoke is U-shaped in cross section, with a pipe unit including a measurement conduit being arranged in the interior of the yoke. One end portion and another end portion of the measurement conduit are formed with true circular shapes in cross section, whereas an intermediate portion thereof between the one end portion and the other end portion is formed with an oval shape in cross section. On the measurement conduit, cross-sectional straight line portions thereof, which are formed in the intermediate portion, are arranged in a vertical direction. Coils of the solenoid unit and excitation plates are arranged in facing relation to the cross-sectional straight line portions.
