A centrifugal pump operates at speeds of 200~400Hz, and a flow meter will be installed 10 meters away from this pump. The natural frequency of the flow meter was found to be around 200Hz from SolidWorks Cosmo. The fluid is a high pressure and high temperature water. So how much should the natural frequency of the flow meter be increased to avoid structural resonances?
