This paper analyzes velocity profiles for flow through circular tubes in laminar, turbulent, and transition region flows and how they affect measurement by flow-meters. Experimental measurements of velocity profiles across the cross-section of straight circular tubes were made using laser doppler velocimetry. In addition, flow visualization was done using the hydrogen bubble technique. Velocity profiles in the laminar and the turbulent flow are quite predictable which allow the determination of meter factors for accurate flow measurement. However, the profiles can not be predicted at all in the transition region. Therefore, for the accuracy of the flowmeter, it must be ensured that the flow is completely in the laminar regime or completely in the turbulent regime. In the laminar flow a bend, even at a large distance, affects the meter factor. The paper also discusses some strategies to restructure the flow to avoid the transition region.

In this paper we have proposed a technique as a testing method for the instrument of measuring the amount of fuel filled in motorbike fuel tank. The instrument used a fluid flow meter that can be used easily by consumers to check the accuracy of gas station filler gauge. The study aims to develop a prototype of fluid flow measurement devices and a digital reporting system through IoT. The research phase consists of designing a fluid flow equipment, designing a color detection device, and designing a reporting system with IoT. Reporting application uses the smartphone system as a display of measurement results from flow meters and color detectors. Testing the function of the accuracy of the flow sensor on the tool is done by using a calibration factor. The output of measurements are fuel volume discharge, type of fluid and the result are shown on smartphone which connected to the internet for its reporting system.
