  • AUTHOR: Fred G. Van Orsdol

A Review of the revisions To API.3/AGA 3, Part 2 API Chapter 14.3 is a living document, constantly reviewed and considered for revision as new information and/or research data become available relative to the design and operation of orifice metering systems. In spite of this scrutiny within theAPI, AGA and ISO, the latest recommendations and revisions are not well known in many areas of our…

EFFECTS OF WET GAS FLOW ON GAS ORIFICE PLATE METERS Orifice plate meters are one of the most widely used technologies in industry for gas flow metering. This is due to their relative simplicity, the extensive publicly available data sets that led to several orifice plate meter standards 1, 2, 3, 4 and the fact that they are a relatively inexpensive method of gas metering.…

FLOW CONDITIONING AND EFFECTS ON ACCURACY FOR FLUID FLOW MEASUREMENT Over the last several years research has shown that by improving on the flow conditioners used in natural gas metering applications, measurement is improved and installation cost can be reduced. The standards developed for orifice meters (AGA 3/API 14.3 and ISO 5167)addresses the question of flow conditioner design and testing to ensure the meter performance…

APPLICATION AND VERIFICATION OF CORIOLIS METERS FOR GAS MEASUREMENT Since the early 1980s, Coriolis meters have gained worldwide acceptance in gas, liquid, and slurry applications with an installed base of more than 600,000 units. Through significant design enhancements in the early 1990s Coriolis meters have rapidly gained worldwide acceptance in gas phase applications with over 40,000 meters installed worldwide and most notably the 2003…

ULTRASONIC METERS FOR RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS An ultrasonic meter falls into the classification of inferential meters. Unlike positive displacement meters that capture volume to totalize volume,inferential meters measure flowing gas velocity to totalize volume. Orifice meters use pressure drop to measure velocity to infer volume and turbine meters use the speed of the rotor to measure velocity to infer volume, while…

ELECTRONIC CALIBRATORS Pressure calibration is as important today as it has been for a very long time, but the way calibration is done and the equipment used to do it has changed drastically. In the past, it was a standard practice to use a primary standard for pressure calibration. That standard was normally a dead weight tester…

Pressure Effect on Turbine Meter Gas Flow Measurement Pressure sensitivity of turbine gas meters has been a well observed phenomenon since the inception of these devices for use in the natural gas industry. However,very little published experimental data was available for study until the recent years. Due to ever increasing energy costs, the natural gas industry is paying much more attention to improving…
