Emerging flowmeter
technologies include sonar, optical and multiphase.
Sonar
Sonar
flow technology provides a non-intrusive and robust way to accurately and
repeatedly measure a wide range of singlephase and multiphased flows, including
pulp slurry, sewage, and flows with entrained air.

Optical
Optical
flow metering is an emerging technology for natural gas and flare measurement.
It uses optical laser technology to measure the actual speed of particles rather
than the speed of sound through a medium (as in ultrasonic flowmeters) and
conductivity (as in mass thermal flowmeters).

Multiphase
Multiphase
flowmeters are used in oil and gas production to determine the mixture and
amounts of oil, gas, and water coming out of the well. This
measurement used to only be possible after the fluids were physically separated. Multiphase
flow measurement began in the area of the North Sea when the prospective decline
in production of the
North Sea
oil fields made it necessary to find a way to analyze the increasing
amounts of gas and water that were becoming a greater part of the fluid from the
wells. Several research projects were undertaken at that time to develop
multiphase technology that could provide this analysis on fluids as they came
out of the wells. Read more:
