Abstract:
This article describes fundamental design, technical aspects, measurement and internal calibration principals of weighing-time flow measurement systems with the diverters for water and Hydrocarbon liquids, which are newly established at UME Fluid Mechanics Laboratories.
At the UME Fluid Mechanics Laboratories, there are four weighing-time flow measurement systems with the capacities of 30 tons, 5 tons, 1 tone with dead weight tester and 10 kg for water and three weighing-time flow measurement systems with the capacities of 2.5 tons, 1000 kg with dead weight tester and 150 kg for Hydrocarbon liquids. There are five diverters on the weighing-time flow measurement systems with the diameters of 600, 400, 200, 100 and 15 mm for water and three diverters on the weighing-time flow measurement systems with the diameters of 300, 100 and 50 mm for Hydrocarbon liquids.
Keywords:
