Abstract: Methods for operating a flowmeter diagnostic tool are provided that comprise interfacing the diagnostic tool with a flowmeter (5) sensor assembly (10). A base prover volume (BPV), a desired number of passes per run, and/or a maximum number of allowed runs may be input into the diagnostic tool. Flowmeter data is received. An estimated total prove time (TPT) necessary to pass a predetermined repeatability requirement, an estimated minimum number of runs needed to achieve the calculated TPT, and/or an estimated minimum BPV may be calculated.

Abstract: A vibratory meter (5) configured to detect a measurement bias of a reference zero-flow value is provided. The vibratory meter (5) comprises a sensor assembly (10) and a meter electronics (20) communicatively coupled to the sensor assembly (10). The meter electronics (20) is configured to measure a plurality of zero-flow values of the sensor assembly (10) and compare the plurality of zero-flow values to a reference zero-flow value to determine a bias indicator of the reference zero-flow value.

Abstract: A method for correcting a flow variable (509) based on an inner pressure inside a Coriolis flow meter (202) comprises the steps of receiving a first outside pressure (503) measured with a first pressure sensor (204) located in a first process conduit (208a) positioned on a first end (212a) of the Coriolis flow meter (202), determining a second outside pressure (505) in a second process conduit (208b) positioned on a second end (212b) opposing the first end (212a) of the Coriolis flow meter (202), determining an estimated inner flow meter pressure (507) based on the first outside pressure (503) and the second outside pressure (505), receiving the flow variable (509), and generating a corrected flow variable (512) based on the estimated inner flow meter pressure (507), a pressure compensation factor (510), and the flow variable (509).

Abstract: A method of converting a directly measured mass flow rate to account for buoyancy is provided. The method includes directly measuring a mass flow rate of a material, measuring a density of the material, and using the measured density of the material to convert the directly measured mass flow rate into a mass value including a buoyancy of a fluid.

Abstract: A method for totalizing a flow rate of a multi-phase/single-phase flow is provided. The method comprises detecting that a liquid flow is being measured and switching a totalizing of the multi-phase/single-phase flow from an estimated gas mass flow rate of a precedent multi-phase flow to an estimated gas mass flow rate of the liquid flow.
