Abstract: The increasing acceptance of gas turbine meters in this country has created for many the problem of establishing suitable methods for field testing. The requirement for field testing is predetermined by the need, through contract or otherwise, to maintain and demonstrate accuracy in measurement. In attempting to establish a suitable method for field testing one finds oneself trying to obtain laboratory results under field conditions. At best this is a frustrating experience, although necessary. At this point I wish to point out distinction between a calibration and a field test. The need for this distinction is to qualify the type of results that should be expected. The field test and the laboratory calibrations are not necessarily one in the same and at best will only approach each others results. The point is that in performing one you should not expect the results of the other. The degree of difference can be attributed to many factors such as environmental condition, instrumentation, duration of run, variations of flowing stream and difference in standards.
