Abstract: The MC-3000 Microprocessor-Based Flow Computer was introduced approximately one year ago with principal application in natural gas transmission and light-end liquids. This paper describes the various instruments with which the computer interfaces to enable the accurate calculation of mass flow. Front panel operation going through the two keyboards is discussed thoroughly. Computer accuracy is discussed in some detail and input/output accuracies detailed. Discussion of auto-calibration and reliability features built into the computer are detailed. Pipeline installations are illustrated with a specific application. Purpose of the illustration is to examine cost per pipeline of flow computer. A thorough discussion of software is extremely important and a brief review of the supporting manuals is illustrated. A discussion of automation techniques and transmission of information from remote locations to central operating stations is covered.
