Experience of Application of Clamp-on Cross-Correlation Flow Meter in Nuclear Industry

Abstract

The cross-correlation clamp-on flow meter, CROSSFLOW, developed and manufactured by AMAG, has been used over the world for over 15 years for flow measurements in various systems in nuclear and fossil power plants. Prior that, OPG has used similar technology in Canadian nuclear power plants since 1980-ies. Two recent examples of the application of the clamp-on cross-correlation technology are presented in this paper. In first example OPG meter was used to verify accuracy of ASME nozles installed in condensate flow lines. In second example AMAG meter was used to measure Diesel Cooling Water (DCW).
