ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method of measuring fluid flow using a Coriolis mass flow rate meter which includes a means for maintaining the outlet pressure of the Coriolis mass flow rate meter substantially above zero p.s.i.g., thereby substantially improving the measurement accuracy of the meter. The apparatus and method minimize the change in pressure across the Coriolis mass flow rate meter. The apparatus and method are used in a fuel measurement system in which the fuel pressure is monitored both upstream and downstream of the Coriolis mass flow rate meter. The apparatus and method are also used with a multi-engine fuel measurement system in which the outlet pressure of the Coriolis mass flow rate meter is monitored and maintained substantially above zero p.s.i.g.
