Abstract: Companies today are grappling with the implementation of Ultrasonic Flowmeters (USMs) in an efficient and effective manner. While the USM technology provides the user with a high level of performance if installed correctly, it also provides the user with a wealth of information about its operation. When interpreted and analyzed thoroughly, the operating data provides the user with a number of ways to determine the effectiveness of the measurement creating a benchmark for performance. This paper contains the results of experiments of USMs in natural gas service employing - Intelligent integration techniques Techniques to monitor ultrasonic flowmeters in the real world environment for troubleshooting and assurance of performance (diagnostics) The combination of these elements provides an intelligent ultrasonic flowmeter with advanced integration and diagnostic capabilities. This paper presents experimentally validated concepts, proposed by the authors, that combines superior performance under real world piping configurations with a simplified meter design that enables the user community to benefit from significantly reduced capital and operating costs. The intellectual property discussed reflects domestic and foreign patents pending of Savant Measurement Corporation for intelligent integration and diagnostics for ultrasonic flowmeters.
