2. Water metering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_metering

   Ultrasonic water meters are highly accurate devices, with residential models capable of measuring flow rates as low as 1 liter per hour (L/h). [2] They feature wide flow measurement ranges, require minimal maintenance, and have long lifespans due to the absence of internal mechanical components that could wear out over time. [3]

3. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

   Because they are used for domestic water measurement, piston meters, also known as rotary piston or semi-positive displacement meters, are the most common flow measurement devices in the UK and are used for almost all meter sizes up to and including 40 mm (1 + 1 ⁄ 2 in). The piston meter operates on the principle of a piston rotating within a ...

4. Current meter - Wikipedia

   The devices are usually equipped with additional optional sensors. Travel time instruments determine water velocity by at least two acoustic signals, one up stream and one down stream. By precisely measuring the time to travel from the emitter to the receiver, in both directions, the average water speed can be determined between the two points.

5. Parshall flume - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parshall_flume

   Named after its creator, Dr. Ralph L. Parshall of the U.S. Soil Conservation Service, the Parshall flume is a fixed hydraulic structure used in measuring volumetric flow rate in surface water, industrial discharges, municipal sewer lines, and influent/effluent flows in wastewater treatment plants. The Parshall flume accelerates the flow by ...

6. Water clock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_clock

   A water clock or clepsydra (from Ancient Greek κλεψύδρα (klepsúdra) 'pipette, water clock'; from κλέπτω (kléptō) 'to steal' and ὕδωρ (hydor) 'water'; lit. ' water thief ' ) is a timepiece by which time is measured by the regulated flow of liquid into (inflow type) or out from (outflow type) a vessel, and where the amount ...

7. Positive displacement meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_displacement_meter

   A positive displacement meter is a type of flow meter that requires fluid to mechanically displace components in the meter in order for flow measurement. Positive displacement (PD) flow meters measure the volumetric flow rate of a moving fluid or gas by dividing the media into fixed, metered volumes (finite increments or volumes of the fluid).
