Calibration 195
Third-order polynomial
If the third-order polynomial wet calibration method is selected, then the wet-calibration gas
flow velocity is calculated as shown in Equation 6-11.
Equation 6-11 Wet calibration - third-order polynomial
where
Note that the meter provides two sets of wet calibration polynomial coefficients - one set for
each flow direction.
No wet calibration
If no wet calibration is selected, then the wet calibration gas flow velocity is equal to the dry
calibration gas flow velocity.
