Abstract :
The main goal of this column was to describe how to optimize the excitation coil. In this column, the authors describe how to optimize the measurement algorithm. We explain the necessary quantitative power that the flowmeter coil has to receive to be able to realize a given measurement uncertainty with respect to analog and digital processing of the flow signals.
