Abstract:
A method and corresponding device are provided for determining a flow speed in a fluid conduit. The fluid conduit is provided with first, second and third ultrasonic transducers, wherein respective connection lines between transducers extend outside of a symmetry axis of the fluid conduit. First and second measuring signals are applied to the first ultrasonic transducer and received at the second and the third ultrasonic transducer, respectively. The measuring signals comprise a respective reversed signal portion with respect to time of a response signal. Respective first and second response signals are measured and the flow speed is derived from at least one of the first and second response signals.

Claim (Index 26):
The method of  claim 23 , further comprising:\n providing the fluid conduit with a fluid, providing an impulse signal to one of the first ultrasonic wet transducer and the second ultrasonic wet transducer, receiving a response signal of the impulse signal at the other one of the first ultrasonic wet transducer and the second ultrasonic wet transducer, deriving the measuring signal from the response signal, the derivation of the measuring signal comprising selecting a signal portion of the respective response signal or of a signal derived therefrom and reversing the signal portion with respect to time, storing the measuring signal for later use.
