Numerical study of upstream disturbances on the performance of electromagnetic and ultrasonic flowmeters

[EN] Electromagnetic and ultrasonic flowmeters are high precision devices that can measure the water flow in pressurized irrigation networks. In these networks, the inadequate installation distance of flow control valves generates upstream disturbances which will increase measurement errors and redu...
