A NEW APPROACH TO FLOWMETERING--SIMPLE MECHANICAL DEVICE ALLOWS USE OF REASONABLY SPECIFIED PRESSURE TRANSDUCER FOR FLOW AND FOR TOTAL VOLUME METERING

The traditional pressure transducer flowmeters are described. The pressure/flow square law problem and its relation to accuracy is described. A novel solution to the square law accuracy problem is offered. Pressure transducer accuracy is examined. A technique of improving pressure transducer accuracy in flowmetering is offered. In composite, a new flowmeter design is recommended.
