The Ultimate Guide for Multi-beam Ultrasonic Flowmeters

by Oil and gas Systems international Manufacturer
The ultrasonic flowmeters are non-infiltrative flow measurement systems that utilize sensors to generate ultrasonic waves that go through the flow transducers. That identifies flow velocity and then calculates flow rate. These meters are simple to set up and use.
 
Where are Multi-beam Ultrasonic Flowmeters?
 
A multi-beam ultrasonic meter is particularly designed for custody transfer. It is significantly utilized for crude oil and refined products. The transducer's technology and application are the same.
 
How are these flowmeters designed? 
 
Multi-beam ultrasonic meters are made up of two sets of transducers, each with eight components. The first set fires four ultra beams, which are intercepted by the second set, and the process repeats itself. This installation creates a multi-star ultrasonic beams' design that covers 90% of the flow profile. 
 
How do these flowmeters work?
 
A pair of transducers and receivers are installed upstream and downstream, respectively, within the inner walls of the flowmeters. The flowmeter technology correctly measures the travel time between the transmitting and receiving transducers. This transit time is then utilized to calculate the real-time flow velocity.
 
An ultrasonic flowmeter is made up of several pairs of transducers, each of which measures transit time quickly. As a result, there's a lot of basic data to work with when averaging and determining flow rates.
 
Which kind of places utilize these flowmeters? 
 
Multi-beam ultrasonic meters are calibrated at state-of-the-art and internationally renowned calibration facilities such as Euroloop in the Netherlands using liquids with viscosities that are identical to the process conditions on-site.
 
Multi-beam ultrasonic flowmeters meet the requirements of most international and local standards carrying custody transfer metering certification.
 
How can you benefit from Multi-beam Ultrasonic Flowmeters?
 
  • Water content in liquid hydrocarbons has little or no effect on multi-beam ultrasonic flowmeters.
  • The ultrasonic meter has a full bore and no obstructions to the flow. As a result, the pressure drop across the meter is comparable to that of a straight pipe spool.
  • A multi-beam ultrasonic flowmeter can be placed without upstream conditioners.
  • Linearity and repeatability are unrivaled in the industry.
  • In any case, the large number of ultrasonic beams ensures redundancy and measurement accuracy during custody transfer.
  • The multi-beam ultrasonic flowmeter can be straight moved on-site by a Prover to verify with the same calibrated volume as a turbine flowmeter of the same size.
 
In final words, the most significant benefit of multi-beam ultrasonic flowmeters is that they can be readily verified using a Bi-Directional Pipe Prover or even a Small Volume Compact Piston Prover. You can procure them from OGSI, the best multi-beam ultrasonic flowmeter manufacturer.
