- Abstract:
- The article presents the results of tests carried out in turbine meters to investigate the effects of different viscosities in the curves, and to explore mathematical ways to express the low flow rate part of the curves in order to use them as a functional part of the flow meter curve, with some loss of uncertainty, but even so useful in a number of cases. The turbine meters have diameters of 25 mm, 40 mm and 50 mm, and the tests were carried out with three different viscosities of fluids (7cSt, 17cSt and 34cSt).
