FLOW MEASUREMENT (175 pages with drawings, tables, illustrations, and examples for added comprehension) This training manual reviews the procedures for calculating natural gas and liquid flow through an orifice plate, use of turbine meter, positive displacement meters, UltraSonic meters, Coriolis meters and other devices used for measuring fluid flow. Both Metric and English units of measurement are used so students can work in units with which they are familiar.

Covered Subjects:

• Principles of flow measurement

• Units of measure for flow measurement and Standard Conditions

• Types of fluid flow measurement devises and their principles of operations

• The effect of temperature and relative density on measurement

• The procedure to calculate natural gas flow through an orifice meter tube

• Principles of operations for Ultrasonic, Coriolis and other type meters

• Tables are provided for the coefficient, and correction factors for temperature, relative density, and supercompressibility

• Drawings and photographs of various devices used in fluid flow measurement

• Factors affecting accuracy of flow measurement

• Instrumentation common at a meter location.

• Meter provers

• Meter calibration and witnessing

• Loss and Unaccounted For

Questions and problems are included throughout the text with answers in the back that allow students to check their understanding of the subject.
