Abstract: DoD has critical needs for high accuracy liquid fuel measurements that pervade all stages of DoD engine testing and performance monitoring. Operational mission success often depends on accurate monitoring of fuel consumption rates given known supply onboard for a given mobile weapon system. These needs and this operational-mission-success drive DoD programs to: a) establish and maintain high accuracy fuel flow measurement capabilities, b) use flow meter characterization procedures that enable satisfactory fuel measurement accuracies over the extremely wide ranges of fluid viscosities and flow conditions encountered by all of its engines, in all of their operating conditions, c) devise and use efficient and effective flow metering arrangements, d) innovate and conduct joint services R&D testing, where needed, to validate functional improvements, and e) implement and assess flow meter and calibration improvements from other sources, such as surrogate fluid techniques
