【Q&A Question 227】December 03, 2016: When diesel flow meter is used to measure naphtha, does the value it displays are higher or lower than the actual value? Why? A reference ** will be shown after responding; scoring is achieved by answering the key points. It’s on the high side, as the density of naphtha is lower than that of diesel.

It is on the high side, because the density of naphtha is lower than that of diesel.

The measured mass flow rate is lower than the actual value. The measured volumetric flow rate is higher than the actual value. Because the density of diesel is higher than that of naphtha.

The displayed value is greater than the actual value. Because the density of diesel was used in the calculation. ’

Big. Because some light diesel is still included in the table.
