A Curve-fitting Calibration Method applied for Ultrasonic Flow-meter

Abstract

 As the influence of fluid distribution in the internal pipe, the measurement characteristics of theory and practice exist significant differences in Ultrasonic Flow-meter(USF). Through analysis of fluid state, the method of curve-fitting is applied for the calibration of USF. Experimental results show that the USF can achieve level-1 accuracy with just a correction of 5 flow points, and this method performs a low computational complexity and strong practicality. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i10.3392
