ABSTRACT:
An ultrasonic flow rate measuring device according to the present invention improves a measuring accuracy. An ultrasonic flow rate measuring device includes an ultrasonic measuring portion in which a first ultrasonic transmitter-receiver and a second ultrasonic transmitter-receiver are provided to a measurement passage, and first to fifth partitioning plates are set substantially in parallel with an ultrasonic wave propagation path that connects the first ultrasonic transmitter-receiver and the second ultrasonic transmitter-receiver, whereby first to sixth flat passages are laminated/formed in the measurement passage by the partitioning plates. In this ultrasonic flow rate measuring device, the first ultrasonic transmitter-receiver and the second ultrasonic transmitter-receiver are arranged such that the ultrasonic measuring portion20measures the flow rate of the flat passage that is offset from the center along the lamination direction of the flat passages.
