Flow meters measure the volumetric flow rate in a pipeline. Most meters are based on deriving a signal from the fluid flow and calibrating the signal against the volumetric flow rate. The calibration is done in fully-developed flow, and the same state of flow must exist at the meter's position when it is in practical use. Because the field of flow metering has been neglected by fluid mechanicists for a long time, this book addresses two major fluid mechanical problems in flow metering: the analysis of signal generation in turbulent pipe flow, which explains the function of the meter beyond a simple calibration, and the possible use of a meter in non-developed flows. These problems are investigated with reference to, and examples from, a variety of meters, e.g. ultrasound cross-correlation meters, vortex meters, and turbine meters. Studying these problems requires consideration of specific phenomena in turbulent non-developed pipe flow, as caused by installations, and finding special solutions with signal processing, both of which are included in the book.

From the reviews:
"This book, edited by Wolfgang Merzkirch, presents the work of 12 German academicians ... . Merzkirch is to be commended not only for compiling the work of his colleagues but also for his own fluid mechanical contributions. This tome is a critical element for the bookshelves of those currently involved in or intending to join worldwide quest to improve flow measurement." (George E. Mattingly, AIAA Journal, Vol. 44 (3), 2006)
