Abstract
A flowmeter is disposed in a passage through which a fluid flows. The flowmeter includes a first passage and a second passage. The first passage defines a first opening through which at least a part of the fluid flows into the first passage from the passage. The second passage branches off from the first passage and includes a flow rate detector configured to detect a flow rate of the fluid flowing through the second passage from the first passage. The first passage includes a vortex reducer configured to restrict a vortex from generating.
