What type of flow meter is used for the residue oil flow meter at the feed inlet of your delayed coking unit?

As the title suggests, what type of flow meter is used for measuring the flow rate of the residue oil fed into your delayed coking unit? Is it accurate? We are using an ultrasonic flowmeter. Due to the large variations in the density of residue oil, we set the density value to 1; this is used only to display the square value, but it still doesn’t seem accurate. We propose replacing it with a mass flowmeter, but it’s difficult to choose the right one. What kind of flowmeter do you use in your system?

Correct, we have performed calibrations; I remember that we calibrated against the oil storage tank area every time we started operations. A Roots flow meter is being used

Except for mass flow meters, volume flow meters such as rotameters only measure volume; it is necessary to ensure that the density of the oil changes little, or to monitor the oil density regularly.
