Clamp-on flow measuring test for cement-lined pipes

A few weeks ago, Rittmeyer tested clamp-on flow measurement of cement-lined pipes in Japan and Malaysia. For precise flow measurements, exact geometries and good receive signals (from the ultrasonic transducers) are essential. Especially in case of cement-lined pipe, usually not all pipe parameters are well-known or trustworthy and some trial-and-error methods are necessary.

The tested cement-lined pipes had diameters from 0.25m up to 0.9m.

Although the receive signals seem to be quite low, stable and accurate flow measurements were possible with the RISONC clamp-on measuring system. The customers were very satisfied with the results, compared to existing reference systems.
