Title: Turbine Meters In Decline - Throwing The Baby Out With The Bathwater

Abstract: While there is no doubt that the new meters, Coriol is and USMs, have some great advantages, the fact that no single flowmeter is be st for all applications is being lost in the almost born again Apple like fervor to promote them. This results in missing the true advantages of older meter designs such as the turbine meter. The paper describes the design and operation of tur bine meters, concentrating, unlike past papers, on the methods used for linearizing th em by modifying the basic physics by changing the rotor aerodynamics. Thus unlike the Coriolis and USM their base performance does not require a base viscosity to be determined to correct them. Once linearised they find their own Reynolds number corr ection by virtue of the fluid dynamics.
