Turbine meters presently used for liquid measurement are presented here. Through the evolution of technology, the turbine meter has maintained its reliability and ruggedness while attaining a high degree of accuracy. The paper attempts to explain the basic principles involved with the utilization of turbine meters, as well as the application of the meter by the aerospace industry, petroleum industry, and petrochemical industry. The use of turbine meters for custody transfer of refined products and pipeline systems, tankers and barge loading or unloading of crude oil has brought the turbine meter to worldwide recognition as a primary register for the exchange of energy.
