Natural Gas Flow Measurement
In the measurement of gas flow rate, there are several types of systems-meter (gauge) commonly used, among others:
1. Diaphragm Meter
2. Turbine Meter
3. Orifice Meter
4. Ultra Sonic Meter (USM)
How to Use Planimeter in Natural Gas Flow Measurement
Orifice meters used to measure the volume or flow rate of natural gas, in addition to using computer flow units as a means of output data, also prepared a back up facility Chart Recorder. This chart used to record fluctuations Static Pressure (P), Temperature (T), and Differential Pressure (DP) for 24 hours. To be able to know the amount of each transmitter used a planimeter aids. This tool is more commonly used as a tool to calculate the area of a region on a map.
Chart Recorder
Flow / Chart Recorder is used as a backup tool for electronic flow measurement computers on meter system, both in customers and with the supplier (off-take). Chart Recorder is commonly used brand of ITT Barton or Foxboro.
