Measurement of fluid flow in closed conduits - Velocity area method using Pitot static tubes

This document specifies a method for the determination in a closed conduit of the volume rate of flow of a regular flow a) of a fluid of substantially constant density or corresponding to a Mach number not exceeding 0,25, b) with substantially uniform stagnation temperature across the measuring cross-section, c) running full in the conduit, and d) under steady flow conditions. In particular, it deals with the technology and maintenance of Pitot static tubes, with the calculation of local velocities from measured differential pressures and with the computation of the flow rate by velocity integration.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
