Abstract: There are many different metering devices being used for gas measurement today. Most of these devices fall into the two main types of measurement, positive displacement or inferential measurement devices. Positive displacement meters such as diaphragm and rotary style meters are usually used for measurement of gas at lower volume and/or reduced flow rates. With inferential type devices such as turbine meters, ultrasonic meters, and orifice devices being used for the larger volume, higher flow rate applications. Turbine meters are versatile measurement devices used in applications with varying flow rates and pressure ranges. They are being used in applications ranging from atmospheric pressure to elevated pressures up to 1440 psi. Turbine meters have become a mainstay in the gas industry and are a considered to be very accurate devices . In fact, turbine meters are routinely used as master or reference meters in secondary calibration systems such as transfer provers. Although the modern turbine meter still operates for the most part on the same theory, the configurations, mechanical design, and electrical output options have advanced greatly since it was introduced to the US over 50 years ago.
