- Title
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD DOCUMENTS THE ORIFICE PLATE--A CASE STUDY.

- Abstract
The industrial application of orifice plate meters in the wet gas flow was reviewed in detail. The analysis shows that the orifice plate meter's response to the wet gas flow is closely related to the pattern of the wet gas flow. However, to meter the wet gas flow accurately, precautions must be taken to make sure that the wet gas does not saturate the differential pressure (DP) transmitters of the orifice plate meters. The corrections of under-reading and over-predicting of the orifice plate meter used in the wet gas flow are also discussed in detail. Monitoring the pressure loss ratio (PLR) of an orifice meter is believed to have limited benefit to obtain an accurate reading. All evidences state that it is necessary for ISO to produce a wet gas flow metering technical report.
