Flow metering system is being developed using plus ultrasonic Doppler method. The principle is an integration of instantaneous velocity profile over a pipe diameter so that it is expected to be able to eliminate installation problems such as entry length as well as to follow transient flow rate precisely. Flow metering principle by plus ultrasonic Doppler method in a circular pipe depends on the alignment of measuring lines. In this paper, influence of number of measuring lines on the flow rate measurements for power plant have been investigated for non developed flows in a vertical pipe.
