2. Turndown ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turndown_ratio

   A thermal mass flow meter has a turndown ratio of 1000:1. An orifice plate meter has a practical turndown ratio of 3:1. A turbine meter has a turndown ratio of 10:1. Rotary positive displacement meters have a turndown ratio of between 10:1 and 80:1, depending on the manufacturer and the application.

3. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

   The flow direction is generally straight through the meter, allowing for higher flow rates and less pressure loss than displacement-type meters. They are the meter of choice for large commercial users, fire protection, and as master meters for the water distribution system .

4. Positive displacement meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_displacement_meter

   A positive displacement meter is a type of flow meter that requires fluid to mechanically displace components in the meter in order for flow measurement. Positive displacement (PD) flow meters measure the volumetric flow rate of a moving fluid or gas by dividing the media into fixed, metered volumes (finite increments or volumes of the fluid).

5. Gas meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_meter

   Gas meter. A gas meter is a specialized flow meter, used to measure the volume of fuel gases such as natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas. Gas meters are used at residential, commercial, and industrial buildings that consume fuel gas supplied by a gas utility. Gases are more difficult to measure than liquids, because measured volumes are ...

6. Air flow meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_flow_meter

   An air flow meter is a device similar to an anemometer that measures air flow, i.e. how much air is flowing through a tube. It does not measure the volume of the air passing through the tube, it measures the mass of air flowing through the device per unit time, though Thus air flow meters are simply an application of mass flow meters for the ...

7. Thermal mass flow meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_mass_flow_meter

   Many mass flow controllers (MFC) which combine a mass flow meter, electronics and a valve are based on this design. Furthermore, a thermal mass flow meter can be built by measuring temperature differential across a silicon-based MEMS chip. Both types measure fluid mass flow rate by means of the heat convected from a heated surface to the ...

9. Water metering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_metering

   A velocity-type meter measures the velocity of flow through a meter of known internal capacity. The speed of the flow can then be converted into a volume of flow to determine the usage. There are several types of meters that measure water flow velocity, including jet meters (single-jet and multi-jet), turbine meters, propeller meters and mag ...
