Abstract:
1. Coriolis mass flowmeter, comprising: at least four bent measuring tubes having an inner surface with a predefined geometry and surface characteristics at least one actuator assembly and at least one sensor assembly, a first measuring tube and a second measuring tube located in a common first plane, a third measuring tube and a fourth measuring tube located in a common second plane that is parallel to said common first plan, and a respective flow collector joining all four of said measuring tubes together at a flow input end and at a flow output end thereof, wherein each flow collector has a chamber into which openings of all four of the measuring tubes open, wherein at least one of the geometry and the surface characteristics of the inner surface of the measuring tubes has been set to produce a tube flow resistance of all four measuring tubes that is identical, and wherein said at least four bent measuring tubes are all bent in the same directions.
