Patent ID: 7380438

Claim:
An apparatus for providing a corrected liquid phase fraction measurement of a first liquid component of a multi-liquid mixture, the multi-liquid mixture flowing through a pipe, and the corrected liquid phase fraction measurement being compensated for entrained gas flowing with the multi-liquid mixture through the pipe, the apparatus comprising: a first meter that determines at least one parameter of the multi-liquid mixture, the parameter being indicative of an uncorrected liquid phase fraction of the first liquid component and provides a first output signal indicative of the uncorrected liquid phase fraction of the first liquid component; a second meter that determines a phase fraction of the entrained gas and provides a second output signal indicative of the phase fraction of the entrained gas; and a signal processor, responsive to the first and second output signals for providing the corrected liquid phase fraction measurement of the first liquid component by determining a compensated phase fraction of the first liquid component which is the uncorrected liquid phase fraction of the first liquid component compensated for the entrained gas.
