11、95.)This Standard was prepared by Subcommittee 5 of the ASME Committee on the Measure-ment of Fluid Flow in Closed Conduits.The chairman of the subcommittee is indebted to the many individuals who contributed to this document.Electromagnetic flowmeters were first introduced to the process industries
12、 in the mid-1950s.They quickly became an accepted flowmeter for difficult applications.Subsequent improve-ments in technology and reductions in cost have transformed this flowmeter into one of the leading contenders for general use in water based and other electrically conducting liquid applications
13、.Due to differences in design of the various electromagnetic flowmeters in the marketplace,this Standard cannot address detailed performance limitations in specific applications.It does,however,cover issues that are common to all meters,including application considerations.Suggestions for improvemen
