Abstract

This paper presents a low-cost test and measurement system that can be used to test and calibrate industrial liquid flowmeters. Different flowmeter types, with different working principles, from different manufacturers, can be easily installed and calibrated in a flexible way. The implemented prototype includes a software component that is tailored for laboratory test and calibration of volumetric or mass flowmeters. The final part of the paper includes several simulation and experimental results.
