The primarypurpose of Coriolis fl

14、owmeters is to measure mass flow. However, some of these flowmeters alsomeasure liquid density and temperature of the oscillating tube wall. From the measurements,the mass flow of liquid or gas, liquid density, liquid volume flow, and other related quantitiescan be determined. This Standard was appr

21、neral. ASME Standards are developed and maintained with the intent to represent theconsensus of concerned interests. As such, users of this Standard may interact with the Committeeby requesting interpretations, proposing revisions, and attending committee meetings. Correspon-dence should be addresse

22、d to:Secretary, MFC Standards CommitteeThe American Society of Mechanical EngineersThree Park AvenueNew York, NY 10016-5990Proposing Revisions. Revisions are made periodically to the Standard to incorporate changesthat appear necessary or desirable, as demonstrated by the experience gained from the

23、applicationof the Standard. Approved revisions will be published periodically.The Committee welcomes proposals for revisions to this Standard. Such proposals should beas specific as possible, citing the paragraph number(s), the proposed wording, and a detaileddescription of the reasons for the propo

24、sal, including any pertinent documentation.Interpretations. Upon request, the MFC Committee will render an interpretation of any require-ment of the Standard. Interpretations can only be rendered in response to a written request sentto the Secretary of the MFC Standards Committee.The request for int

25、erpretation should be clear and unambiguous. It is further recommendedthat the inquirer submit his/her request in the following format:Subject: Cite the applicable paragraph number(s) and the topic of the inquiry.Edition: Cite the applicable edition of the Standard for which the interpretation isbei

26、ng requested.Question: Phrase the question as a request for an interpretation of a specific requirementsuitable for general understanding and use, not as a request for an approvalof a proprietary design or situation. The inquirer may also include any plansor drawings that are necessary to explain th

27、e question; however, they shouldnot contain proprietary names or information.Requests that are not in this format will be rewritten in this format by the Committee priorto being answered, which may inadvertently change the intent of the original request.ASME procedures provide for reconsideration of

28、 any interpretation when or if additionalinformation that might affect an interpretation is available.

30、1 SCOPEASME MFC-11 establishes common terminology andgives guidelines for the selection, installation, calibra-tion, and operation of Coriolis flowmeters for the deter-mination of mass flow, density, volume flow, and otherparameters. The content of this Standard is applied to theflow measurement of

31、liquids, gases, mixtures of gases,multiphase flows, and miscible and immiscible mixturesof liquids.2 TERMINOLOGY, SYMBOLS, REFERENCES, ANDBIBLIOGRAPHYParagraph 2.1 lists definitions from ASME MFC-1Mused in ASME MFC-11.Paragraph 2.2 lists definitions specific to thisStandard.Paragraph 2.3 lists symbo

32、ls (see Table 2.3) used in thisStandard (see notes and superscripts).Paragraph 2.4 lists abbreviations (see Table 2.4) usedin this Standard.Paragraph 2.5 lists references used in this Standardand a bibliography.2.1 Definitions Copied From ASME MFC-1Maccuracy: the degree of freedom from error, the de

33、greeof conformity of the indicated value to the true valueof the measured quantity.calibration:(a) the process of comparing the indicated flow to atraceable reference standard(b) the process of adjusting the output of a device tobring it to a desired value, within a specified tolerancefor a particul

34、ar value of the input.cavitation: the implosion of vapor bubbles formed afterflashing when the local pressure rises above the vaporpressure of the liquid. See also flashing.Coriolis flowmeter: a device consisting of a flow sensorand a transmitter which measures the mass flow bymeans of the Coriolis

35、force generated by flowing fluidthrough oscillating tube(s); it may also provide measure-ments of density and temperature.cross-talk: if two or more Coriolis flowmeters are to bemounted close together, interference through mechani-cal coupling may occur. This is often referred to as cross-talk. The

36、manufacturer should be consulted for methodsof avoiding cross-talk.1density calibration factor(s): calibration factor(s) associ-ated with density measurement.drive system: means for inducing the oscillation of thetube(s).flashing: the formation of vapor bubbles in a liquid whenthe local pressure fal

See alsocavitation.flow calibration factor(s): calibration factor(s) associatedwith mass flow measurement.flow sensor: a mechanical assembly consisting of an oscil-la

38、ting tube(s), coil drive system, oscillating tube deflec-tion measurement-sensor(s), flanges/fittings, andhousing.housing: environmental protection of the flow sensor.oscillating tube(s): tubes(s) through which the fluid to bemeasured flows.rangeability: Coriolis flowmeter rangeability is the ratioo

39、f the maximum to minimum flowrates or Reynoldsnumber in the range over which the flowmeter meets aspecified uncertainty and/or accuracy.repeatability of measurement (qualitative): the closeness ofagreement among a series of results obtained with thesame method on identical test material, under the s

40、ameconditions (same operator, same apparatus, same labo-ratory, and short intervals of time).repeatability of measurement (quantitative): the value belowwhich the absolute difference between any two singletest results obtained under the same conditions, seerepeatabilityofmeasurement(qualitative), ma

In the absence of otherindications, the probability is 95%.reproducibility (quantitative): the closeness of agreementbetween results obtained when the conditions of mea-surement differ; for example, with respect to differenttest apparatus, operators,

42、 facilities, time intervals, etc.NOTE: The following three paragraphs are included to help withunderstanding the definitions of repeatability and reproducibility.(a) Repeatability is a quantified measure of the short term stabil-ity of a flowmeter. Repeatability can be determined from successivetest

43、s of the meter, over short periods of time, without changingthe test conditions. Repeatability can be quantified in terms of thestandard deviation or the max./min. differences in these results.(b) Reproducibility is a quantified measure of the longer-termstability of a flowmeter. Reproducibility can

44、 be determined fromASME MFC-112006tests of the meter, over longer (specified) periods of time, or whentest conditions may change (changes to be specified); such as thetypical meter-usage patterns as turning the meter off and thenturning it back on, or testing it on successive days. Reproducibilityca

45、n be quantified in terms of the standard deviation or themax./min. differences in these results.(c) Resultant differences for reproducibility may be larger thantheir repeatabilities because of the test conditions.secondary containment: housing designed to provide pro-tection to the environment if th

In prac-tice, a conventional recognized “standard” or “reference” value istypically used instead.installation effect: any difference in performance of a com-ponent or the measuring system arising between thecalibration under ideal conditions and actual conditionsof use. This difference may be caused by different flowconditions due to velocity profile, perturbations, or bydifferent working regimes (pulsation, intermittent flow,alternating flow, vibrations, etc.).linearity: the consistency of the change in the scaledoutput of a Coriolis flowmeter for
