Next, flow volume q can be expressed as shown in formula (9) when the cross sectional

Scale factor
Therefore, if the scale factor in formula (9) is calculated beforehand, flow volume q can be
calculated from the actual measurement values of formulas (4) and (5). In other words,
formula (9) shows that the affects of changes in the velocity of sound in water can be
eliminated by measuring
△
t and to.
Next, the flow volume correction coefficient k, expressing the relationship between the
measurement velocity V and the actual average velocity
V
as shown by formula (8),
changes depending on the Reynolds Number. Therefore, with this ultrasonic flowmeter, the
velocity V obtained from formula (7) using the ultrasonic flowmeter is further used to obtain
a temporary average velocity
V
using formula (10). The Reynolds Number Re expressed
in formula (11) is then calculated using this temporary value.

Finally, the Reynolds Number Re calculated using formula (11) is used to calculate a flow
volume correction coefficient k, correlated to the flow velocity, from the formula of G.E.
Birger.
Since the above calculation processes are done by a microcomputer, accurate flow volume
measurement is possible.
