Abstract: Flow computers are specially designed micro-processor controlled CPUs specifically constructed to measure and regulate the transfer of a fluid from one point to another. They are an essential part of electronic fluid flow measurement, and are usually installed in various remote locations throughout the production, transmission and distribution segments of the gas industry. TTie function of a flow computer is fourfold collect measurement data, calculate and store measurement data, transmit stored measurement data to a host system, and execute control requirements. In addition to measurement data, the event log, audit trail and alarm information is also collected, stored, and subsequently transmitted to a host system. All these flow computer functions are controlled by onboard firmware, sometimes in conjunction with inputs from the host system.
