Featured article
Gas turbine meters are velocity meters, and the upper velocity limit is essentially unchanged by pressure.
There are two main standards for turbine meters: ISO Standard 9951, Measurement of Gas Flow in Closed Conduits: Turbine Meters and OIML R32, Rotary Piston Gas and Turbine Gas Meters.
A basic turbine meter consists of:
- A pressure-containing meter housing with end flanges
- A set of internals, incorporating the turbine wheel and gearing mechanisms
- A means of counting the turbine wheel revolutions
What is PetroWiki?
PetroWiki was created from the seven volume Petroleum Engineering Handbook (PEH) published by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE). PetroWiki preserves the PEH content in unaltered form (page names that start with PEH:), while allowing SPE's membership to update and expand content from the published version. Pages that do not have PEH: at the beginning may have started with content from the PEH, but have been modified over time by contributors to the wiki. Disclaimer
