Bridging the Gap Between Stated and Actual Accuracy in Flow Measurement Instruments

1. Key Factors Affecting Actual Accuracy 1.1 Fluid Properties Deviating from Ideal Conditions Viscosity and Reynolds Number EffectsStated accuracy is often based on calibration with low-viscosity fluids like water (1 mPa·s). High-viscosity media (e.g., lubricating oil at 50 mPa·s) significantly alter flow behavior: Turbine flow meters show reduced rotor speed due to increased resistance, resulting
