23、mps and turbines and for flowmeter calibration. To obtain comparative results when such measurements are carried out in various installations, it is necessary to standardize the procedures for carrying out the measurements and the tests. 1 Scope This part of ISO9368 specifies methods of testing inst
24、allations for flowrate measurement by the static weighing method. Methods of testing by dynamic weighing are given in ISO9368-2. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO9368.

33、ise the following main items: sump, test section, diverter, weightank, weighing device, receiving tank, timer, one or more pumps. The requirements for these main items are specified in ISO4185. 5.2 Test liquid Clean water is generally used as the test liquid when verifying installations for flowrate
34、 measurement by the weighing method. Other liquids may be employed provided that the liquid vapour pressure is low enough to make vaporization effects negligible. For practical reasons (particularly to limit the drainage time of the weightank) it is recommended that the kinematic viscosity of the li
35、quid does not exceed about35 10 6m 2 /s. 5.3 Principle of verification Following the construction of a system, tests are carried out to assess the systematic and random errors. Further tests are conducted at regularly established intervals to determine the errors and to compare them with the previou
36、s results to determine the required intervals between successive checks. The general principle of the verification of flow calibration systems is to check separately the errors for each item of the installation and to combine them to determine the overall uncertainty of the whole installation. ISO41
37、85:1980, subclause6.2, covers methods for assessing the weighing device and diverter errors. This part of ISO9368 amplifies certain aspects of verification and testing of the system. In particular, alternative procedures are given for checking the weighing device (see6.1 andAnnex A), checking the di
38、verter (see6.2 andAnnex B), checking the timer (see6.3), checking the density measurement system (see6.4), assessment of flowrate stability (see6.5 andAnnex C andAnnex D), study of flow characteristics (see6.6 andAnnex E), and calculating the overall measurement uncertainty (see clause7). 5.4 Prelim
39、inary operations Before undertaking the detailed checks the following preliminary operations shall be carried out: a) examine the technical description and written procedures for operating the installation; b) check the characteristics of the main and auxiliary instrumentation and equipment, and ver
40、ify that it conforms with the characteristics given in the documentation; c) check the operation of the hydraulic system in order to establish any additional sources of error; d) determine the operational flow range of the installation. The maximum operational flowrate of an installation shall be th
41、e lower of the following two values: a) the maximum flowrate which can be produced by the flow supply system when operating in a flow circuit with minimum hydraulic resistance; b) the flowrate corresponding to the minimum allowable time for filling the weightank up to its maximum level, the minimum
42、time having to satisfy the requirements given in ISO4185:1980, subclause3.3, i.e.30s. 6 Procedures for checking operations 6.1 Checking the weighing device The mass of liquid collected is determined by weighing the weightank before and after the diversion period (double weighing) and the tare is the
43、n subtracted from the gross weight. Checking of the weighing device used with the double weighing method shall allow the determination of the corrections to be applied and the systematic and random uncertainties due to the weighing device. Procedures for assessing these uncertainties are given in de
44、tail in ISO4185 and Annex A of this part of ISO9368. 6.1.1 Checking by means of standard weights in order to check the weighing device, standard weights of a total mass not less than the maximum possible mass of liquid collected shall be used whenever possible. The maximum permissible error of the s
45、tandard weights shall be20 % or less of the expected uncertainty of the weighing device.BS6199-1.2:1991 BSI 10-1999 3 If the total mass of the standard weights used in the process of verification is less than the maximum possible mass of liquid collected, then a method of successive substitution may
46、 be used for checking the weighing device, in this case, the total of the standard weights shall not be less than25 % of the maximum possible mass of liquid to be weighed. Nevertheless, this value of25% may be reduced provided that it is possible to determine experimentally, according to the repeate
47、d procedures of successive substitution, that the required accuracy is achieved. When a high accuracy is required, the effects of aerostatic buoyancy on the standard weights and test liquid shall be taken into account in accordance with OIML Recommendation33and ISO4185. 6.1.2 Checking by means of st
48、andard volumetric tanks In certain cases, for instance for large capacity weightanks or when some structures are not completely immersed according to the amount of water stored in the weightank, it is better to check the weighing device by means of standard volumetric tanks, the volume of which shal
49、l be between5 % and10 % of the maximum volume stored in the weightank. It is then necessary to known the density of the water for the measurement conditions with an uncertainty less than0,01%. This implies in particular the determination of the water temperature with an uncertainty less than0,5 C. The checking procedure is identical to that used with standard weights (see6.1.1). 6.2 Checking the diverter Before starting testing, the diverter shall be checked at minimum and maximum flowrates to ensure
