It is well known that the wetness of steam flow sometimes causes measurement errors of the steam flow meter. However, it is difficult to clarify a particular error quantitatively in actual plants and factories, and thus far, there has been no established method for estimating the error caused by the wetness of steam flow. Therefore, wet steam flow rate measurement experiments were conducted to clarify the measurement error caused by the wetness of steam flow in a plant and a factory. In this study, as the first step, the orifice flow meter was applied because it is the main flow meter in actual plants. Experiments were conducted with the steam flow apparatus by changing the flow rate, pressure and wetness. As a result, the correlation between the measurement error and the flow condition was clarified. Moreover, for the correction of the error, a new correction method was applied and was confirmed to be better than existing methods now being used.

An orifice flow meter is widely used in industry to measure the flow rate of gas or liquid in the pipe because of its simplicity. The accuracy of measurement is acceptable when the steady flow is measured. However, it is often the case in industry that the unsteady flow must be measured. It is not yet known, under unsteady flow conditions, how accurate the flow rate can be measured using the orifice flow meter and where the measurement errors come from. In the present paper to answer these questions a pulsating air flow is considered as the simplest of the various types of unsteady flow patterns and the measurement of the flow field in the pipe with orifice is made in detail. The sound pressure level is also measured by probe tube microphone. A comparison is made of power spectrum densities obtained by measurement of sound pressure level and by the velocity measurement from laser Doppler anemometer.
