3410 Series Gas Ultrasonic Meters Operations Manual Section 4: Flow measurement

Reynolds number 33
4.5.6 Reynolds number
Reynolds Number is a dimensionless value that represents the nature of the gas flow within the
pipe. Although the primary reason for calculating Reynolds Number is for two path and bounce
path meters (device numbers 3412 and 3411) profile-effect correction, the value is calculated
for all meter types.
Reynolds Number is calculated as shown in Equation 4-14.
