Abstract Determining the proper installation location of flow meters is important for accurate measurement of discharge in sewer systems. In this study, flow field and flow regimes in two types of manholes under surcharged flow were investigated using a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. The error in measuring the flow discharge using a Doppler flow meter (based on the velocity in a Doppler beam) was then estimated. The values of the corrective coefficient were obtained for the Doppler flow meter at different locations under various conditions. Suggestions for selecting installation positions are provided.

To verify high accuracy of a new type flow-metering system based on the measurements of line velocity profiles, eliminating Profile Factors, calibration tests of “UDF”, the flow-metering system by ultrasonic pulse-Doppler profile-velocimetry, were conducted at national standard loops worldwide, including the National Institute of Standard Technology (NIST) of the U.S. Department of Commerce, the National Metrology Institute of Japan (NMIJ) of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) in Japan, the Nederlands Meetinstituut (NMI) in Netherlands, and the Centro National de Metrologia (CENAM) in Mexico. The deviations of UDF to the standard loops in the calibration tests for water were found between −0.23% and +0.26% at NIST, 0.1% and 0.4% at NMIJ, and −0.52% and +0.59% at NMI in terms of the average values of each measurement. Following improvements to the UDF System, the calibration tests at CENAM exhibited the deviations between −0.18% and +0.23% and the expanded uncertainty with ±0.21%.
