Abstract: [Abstract]Ultrasonic flow meters show the advantages of high precision and instantaneous measurement in flow measurement, and have significant application potential, which is of great significance for safe oil and gas storage, low loss transportation and fair settlement. This paper analyzes the working mechanism of high-precision ultrasonic flow meter based on four flow calculation principles, namely, time difference method, frequency method, cross-correlation method and Doppler method, and reveals the influence of flow velocity and temperature on flow measurement accuracy from three perspectives of turbulence characteristics, instrument structure and environmental factors, and discusses the interference of meter geometry change on flow velocity field. This paper summarizes the error factors of ultrasonic flow meter and the technical methods to reduce the error, and provides ideas and guidance for the innovation of high-precision flow meter technology through research and prospect.
