Workshop: Sustainable advanced flow meter calibration for the transport sector

20 August (13:00 CEST) – 21 August (12:30 CEST), Online

This workshop will be run by the consortium of EMPIR project Sustainable advanced flow meter calibration for the transport sector (20IND13, SAFEST).

The overarching aim of the project was to provide the foundation for advanced flow metrology in the transport sector ensuring reliable fuel consumption measurements as needed in road and maritime transport. By enabling characterisations of flow meters closer to operational conditions and a better consideration of the impact of the fuel properties on the flow measurement, innovation in the transport sector will be fostered and the increased deployment of sustainable alternative transport fuels supported. Moreover, the results will contribute to appropriate emission calculations. At the dissemination workshop findings and outputs of the project will be presented.

Workshop topics will include:

  • Technologies for realising and measuring dynamic flow changes
  • Effect of transport properties on flow meter performance
  • Simulation of interaction between test liquid and flow meters
  • Density/viscosity/speed of sound of selected alternative and synthetic fuels at a broad pressure and temperature range
  • Evaluation of commercial inline viscometers/densimeters
