C.3 Dynamic Compensation Flow Equation................................181
Purpose of this
appendix
This appendix gives a brief description on the use of the available flow
equations for calculating the SMV 3000’s PV4 flow variable.
Configuration examples for a number of flow applications are provided to
show how to configure SMV PV4 flow variable using the SCT 3000 flow
compensation wizard.
Reader Assumptions
It is assumed that you are familiar with the flow application in which the
SMV 3000 multivariable transmitter is to be used and that you are familiar
with using the SCT 3000 Smartline configuration Toolkit.
Reference Data
Sources
Consult the following references to obtain data that are necessary and
helpful for configuring the SMV PV4 flow variable:
• The flow element manufacturer’s documentation.
• The process fluid manufacturer’s documentation on fluid density and
viscosity characteristics.
• Flow Measurement Engineering Handbook, by Richard W. Miller,
McGraw-Hill, Third Edition, 1996.
• The flow application examples in this appendix give actual
configuration setups.
