How to improve the accuracy of the flow meter?

Image
In today’s economic environment, energy usage has become a huge concern, particularly on energy efficiency and using flow meters to guarantee accuracy in energy measurement. The upsurge in energy usage demands industries and end users to measure energy usage as accurately as possible. In chilled and heated water applications, the installation of a temperature and flow-measuring device is required. Linked to a BTU computer, the data enables end users to determine how energy is being used, where and how it is used and take steps towards improvement accordingly. However, there are certain limiting factors, which can affect the accuracy of flow meter systems. The following is a discussion on various technologies that can be used to improve flow meter accuracy: Temperature Sensory Accuracy Let us take an application from matched-pair temperature-sensing technology. It is accurate to (+/-) 0.01% of span (0.02 F). The accuracy of both sensors combined is around 0.04
