19、 INSTALLATION EFFECTS ONFLOWMETERSINTRODUCTIONUnder certain circumstances, flowmeter coefficientshifts and calibration errors caused by installation effects(pipe flow phenomena), i.e., flow pattern, pulsations,etc., can be significant. These changes can be mostsevere when a flowmeter is moved from a

20、n installationin which there are long lengths of straight pipe upstreamand downstream of the meter, to an installation wherethe meter is mounted close to a disturbing pipelineelement such as an elbow, valve, or pump. Becausedifferent types of flowmeters can be affected differentlyby the same flow pa

21、ttern, it becomes important to knowthe flow pattern sensitivity of a given flowmeter inorder to properly use it. This pattern sensitivity isestablished by first determining the performance of ameter in a reference installation and then determiningthe variations in the meters performance caused byoth

22、er installation conditions.When preparing programs to test for installationeffects, it should be realized that the purpose of thetests is to uncover effects that change the meteringperformance. These effects may be stated as a functionof the flow profile at the meter, the pertinent parameterssuch as

23、 Reynolds number, relative roughness, etc., andthe type of disturbing element, the flow conditionentering it, and the distance separating it from themeter.When analyzing installation effects, the changes inthe metering performance of a flowmeter are obtainedby evaluating the signature (e.g., flow co

24、efficient versusReynolds number), bias, and precision of a meter whenit is flow calibrated in reference and nonreferencepiping.1 SCOPEThis Standard establishes methods for determiningthe influence of installation conditions or flow patternson the performance of flowmeters in closed conduits(i.e., pi

25、pe, ducts, etc.).This Standard also addresses(a) means and terminology for defining a reference1condition for flow calibration of a particular flow-meter; and(b) guidelines for extrapolation and interpolation ofinstallation effects to untested piping conditions.This Standard does not supersede or ot

41、ENERAL GUIDELINESThe following guidelines should be adhered to inestablishing installation effects on flowmeters.(a) Care must be taken to achieve a proper andrepeatable alignment between the meter and the adjacentpiping at both inlet and outlet of the meter. Alignmentof the meter per appropriate st

42、andards such as ASMEMFC-12M or AGA9, etc., or according to manufacturersrecommendations is recommended.(b) The flow condition should be one of a conduitrunning full and steady with a homogeneous, singlephase fluid. Flow is considered steady if, within theMETHOD FOR ESTABLISHING INSTALLATIONEFFECTS O

43、N FLOWMETERS ASME MFC-10M2000measurement uncertainty, it is constant in time asidefrom variations related to turbulence generated withinthe piping.(c) The tests outlined in this Standard should coverthe pertinent range of fluid flow rates, Reynolds num-bers, etc., of the meter to be evaluated.NOTE:

44、This requirement can be satisfied by stating the range ofpertinent nondimensionalized parameters over which the data wereobtained (see Section 7).(d) To avoid missing periodic spatial flow variations,measurements should be made at pipe lengths that arenot integer multiples of each other.(e) All cali

45、brations should be performed at the sameflow conditions or as close as practical to the sameconditions when comparing different test runs. Whenreducing data, corrections can be made via an indepen-dent parameter such as Reynolds number when it canbe shown that the overall effects of the different fl

46、uidconditions (temperature, pressure, etc.) and/or the fluidproperties (density, viscosity, etc.) on the tested flow-meter size and type are known and have been ac-counted for.(f) All raw calibration data should be recorded andretained.5 STANDARD REFERENCE CONDITIONS5.1 DescriptionThe process of est

47、ablishing installation effects in-volves the comparison of the performance to that ob-tained in a standard reference condition. This documentallows for two standard reference conditions. One isbased on having specific, well-defined flow patterns inthe test installation (Basic Reference Condition), a

48、ndthe other is based on the constancy of flowmeterperformance along the pipe (Working Reference Con-dition).5.1.1 Basic Reference Condition. The Basic Ref-erence Condition exists when the fluid velocity patternat the flowmeter is identical to that which would existif the meter were installed in a co

49、nduit running fulland steady with unlimited lengths of straight upstreamand downstream pipe. Such a flow pattern is character-ized by zero time-averaged radial and azimuthal fluidvelocity components and an axisymmetric axial velocityprofile that is independent of axial position. Thesecomponents can be considered to be zero if their averagevalues are zero to within the measurement uncertaintyor if they are negligible to within 0.01% of the average3flow velocity. The exact axial velocity profile dependson the inner wall roughness of the pipe (see ASMEB46.1-1985) and the Re
