Summarizes the results of investigations of the total error in measurements of flow by velocity-area methods. It describes the procedures used and types of errors and also gives recommendations for the collection of data for investigation of errors. It is technically identical with and reproduced from ISO/TR 7178:1983.

This Technical Report summarizes the results of investigations of the total error in measurements of flow by velocity-area methods. It describes the procedure used and types of errors (section one), and gives recommendation for the collection of data for investigations of errors (section two) with a view to supplementing the information given in ISO 1088.
