Natural Gas Flow Calibration Perspective
By Terry Grimley, Manager, Flow Measurement Section, Southwest Research Institute

By the time the facility was actually constructed and commissioned at Southwest Research Institute, the introduction of multipath ultrasonic meters for custody transfer had begun; and within the first five years of operation of the facility, Coriolis meters for gas flow were being introduc
