What You Will Learn
This course covers the following:
- Measurement principles
- Fluid properties & flow phenomena
- Traceability
- Meter design & selection
- Differential producers
- Turbine meters
- Vortex meters
- Magnetic meters
- Coriolis mass meters
- Critical flow
- Ultrasonic meters
- Installation effects
- Relevant industry flow standards
We place significant emphasis on basic flow phenomena such as:
- Relationship between pressure drop and flowrate
- Basic fluid properties: density and viscosity
- Relationships between pipe diameter, velocity, and flowrate
The discussion of meter hardware is kept at an introductory level:
- How does a meter work?
- What are the "most likely" and "least likely" applications?
- Emphasis on graphs rather than equations to communicate ideas
The differences between the Fundamental course and the
Comprehensive Flow Measurement
courses include:
- The courses overlap by about 10%-20% of the material. A student that signs up for
both will be prepared for the second week after completing the first. There will
be some repetition that serves as a review but much of the second week's material
will be new.
- Both courses will cover the same hardware, much greater detail is provided in the
advanced course.
- The fundamentals course includes a review of basic flow phenomena, the advanced course
assumes this knowledge
- A basic background in algebra, fluid mechanics, and thermodynamics is helpful for
the advanced course. This background is not required for the fundamentals course.
- The advanced course will include development of working equations for some of the
flowmeter types, equations are generally avoided in the fundamentals course.
- The behavior of a particular meter technology is presented in a very general way
in the fundamentals course. In the advanced course, the underlying physics are explored.
- The fundamentals course includes more meter selection and meter comparison material.
Who Should Attend?
This course is applicable for junior technicians, managers, and lawyers.
Course Format
