VERIFICATION OF CORIOLIS FLOW METER CALIBRATION: THEORY AND PRACTICE, INCLUDING LAB AND FIELD RESULTS Paper # 2015-0164 CsHm 2015

Coriolis flowmeters precisely measure mass flow. Separately and independently from the mass flow measurement, Coriolis meters also measure liquid density. Coriolis mass flowmeters use these two measurements to calculate volumetric flow. Because of their inherent accuracy, minimal maintenance, and absence of moving parts to wear out, Coriolis flowmeters have become widely used in a range of applications. This paper will discuss how verification techniques, in conjunction with this inherent robustness, can be used to confirm mass flow calibration.
