ABSTRACT:
A meter for the measurement of the gas mass flow rate and total liquid mass flow rate of a two phase or multiphase fluid is disclosed. The meter comprises a series of three flow element, the firs element is arranged to mix fluids passing therethrough and the second and third elements are each arranged to provide a measurement of the differential pressure across that element. The second and third elements may be added to an existing installation with an element capable of performing mixing, after the mixing element. The second and third elements provide independent measurements by having different configurations presented to the fluids passing therethrough. The first and third elements may comprise conduits with internal projections and the second element may be a venturi. A flow element for use in such a meter is also disclosed.
