Title: A Saturated Steam Flow Measurement Research Facility

Abstract: Very few data exist for the behaviour of flowmeters in wet steam and most of what there are refer to orifice plates and nozzles. In recent years, however, vortex meters and hybrid variable area/differential pressure meters have become commonly used but there is no information concerning the possible effects of wetness on these types. Surprisingly there is also a lack of basic data on the flow characteristics of wet steam in pipes when the wetness is in the range 0 - 20% by mass. This paper describes the design, construction, and instrumentation of a flow facility on which research into both the characteristics of wet steam flow and also the behaviour of flowmeters in wet steam can be conducted.
