Abstract

In principle there is no room for argument about what ‘the right flowmeter for the job’ means. The right flowmeter is the one that will do the job adequately at the lowest possible total cost, including initial cost, running costs, and the indirect costs arising from inaccurate measurements and from loss of plant utilisation when the flowmeter is out of action.

Human mind like parachute-work best when open.
