Abstract: Liquids having viscosities greater than around 100 centipoise (cP) are someti mes classified as high viscosity and present special measurement chall enges not found in lower viscosity liqui ds like water, natural gas liquids, gasoline, and many types of crude oil. Many different meter types are used to measure high viscosity fluids and their advantages and disa dvantages are fairly well studied and documented. However, one meter type, the quadrant-edged orifice meter, is not often discussed but offers advantages in some applications which should be considered. Compared to some of the more commonly used viscous flow meters, quadrant edges orifice meters offer a relatively inex pensive advantage especially in non-custody transfer and other non-crucial measurement applic ations because they do not require repeated flow calibrations and are completely non-proprietary
