Title: A Discussion On Vortex Meter Technologies With Wet Gas Flows

Abstract: It is commonly believed that vortex flow meters can be used by the hydrocarbon production industry in adverse flow conditions as they have a reputation for being robust. One such application would be metering the gas offtake from a separator where the meter may occasionally encounter wet gas flow conditions. Extending this operation into the metering of unprocessed wet natural gas flow streams should be possible, although to date there has been only limited published research into vortex meter performance with wet gas flows. This paper presents the results of two vortex shedding flow meter research projects. The first was a single phase flow project, the second a wet gas flow project. Both are based on the investigation of the permanent pressure loss across the vortex meters bluff body as an extra variable to increase the capability of the metering system.
