Ultrasonic Flowmeter Calibration Intervals

Bryan Trostel, Joel Clancy, Thomas Kegel

Abstract

Currently no recalibration interval has been recommended by ultrasonic meter manufacturers or required by the AGA in the United States. Ten years ago the natural gas industry in the United States began acquiring ultrasonic flowmeters. A large amount of data has been collected over the past few years detailing how the performance of an ultrasonic flowmeter is affected by use in the field. The data from 35 meters calibrated at CEESI Iowa will be analyzed to investigate the effects of time on the performance of ultrasonic meters.
