Abstract
A magnetic-inductive flow meter for measuring flow velocity or volume flow rate of a medium includes: a measuring tube having a first cross-section and a middle segment, which has a second cross-section, between inlet side and outlet side end planes, wherein the first cross-sectional area is greater than the second cross-sectional area; a pole shoe or a saddle coil, which subtends the measuring tube with a maximum central angle; and an electrode system having two electrode pairs, wherein a central angle in the second cross-section defines a minimum circular sector in which the electrodes located on a side of the measuring tube are distributed, wherein the electrode pairs are arranged in the middle segment such that the central angle and the maximum central angle are adapted relative to one another such that the flow meter is insensitive to departures from a rotationally symmetric flow.
