yes, I often use an FMI metering pump. They have good control. D2 CC: [email protected] From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Vo]:Suggestions for a more effective demonstration Date: Mon, 12 Aug 2013 14:50:03 -0600
Jed, a better method is to use a constant rate pump. These are available and are very reliable and accurate. The rate is not affected by back pressure, within reason and can be adjusted to achieve the required delta T.

Granted, those things are ornery and often get plugged up or broken. The kind used in your house to bill for your water is robust but maybe not sensitive enough. On the other hand, if they boost the flow rate up to 4 L/min it should do. That would be fast enough to prevent boiling, I think. - Jed
