PR-015-11702-R01 Evaluation of Enhanced Diagnostics for Orifice Meters
View through CrossRef
A large installed base of orifice meters, many installed where newer technology meters are impractical, accounts for a significant fraction of the measured volume of natural gas in the United States. Ultrasonic meters are newer technology meters that provide integrated diagnostics to monitor the meters health and identify flow problems such as distorted velocity profiles and other operational issues. The need exists for similar diagnostics for orifice meters to identify operational causes of measurement errors (and possibly measure their magnitudes), allow users to perform orifice meter maintenance as needed, reduce maintenance costs, and reduce the fiscal impact of significant measurement errors. Research was conducted to identify and recommend candidate technologies for development into practical, cost-effective orifice meter diagnostic tools..
