Ultrasonic flowmeters

Flow measurement in an ultrasonic flowmeter is based on measuring the difference in the transit times of the ultrasonic wave. The ultrasonic wave is emitted alternately between two measurement sensors mounted on the pipeline. In the absence of flow, the wave transit times in both directions are the same. If the medium moves in the direction of flow, the wave moves faster. The ultrasonic wave moves slower when the medium flows in the opposite direction.
