Abstract: The orifice meter is the most widely accepted device for the measurement of natural gas and other fluids in a pipeline. The primary element of the orifice meter consists of an orifice plate, orifice fitting or holding device and adjacent piping which is more commonly referred to as a meter tube. The properly designed meter tube should follow the guidelines for manufacture as established by the American Gas Association Report No. 3 or American National Standards/ Institute/American Petroleum Institute (ANSI/API) 2530, herein referred to as AGA #3. This paper will address the application and operation of different orifice fittings and meter tube design considerations according to AGA #3.
