INVESTIGATION ON CALIBRATION OF FUEL ETHANOL FLOW METER

R. Doihara, T. Shimada, N. Furuichi, Y. Terao
Abstract:
Calibrations with ethanol, water and kerosene have been conducted by using a transferable test package which consisted of positive displacement (PD), turbine (TB), Coriolis (CMF) flowmeters and a small volume prover (SVP). Flowmeter performances and establishment a temporary ethanol flow standard have been investigated. It is founded that liquid replacement in the PD and the TB induced transitions of K-factor over several days. Performances of mass and volume flow output of CMF were also evaluated.
