- Offers a working knowledge of the origin and development of the more traditional technology flowmeters: differential pressure and primary elements, positive displacement, turbine, open channel, and variable area.
- Describes how these conventional meters still fit into what is being called Industry 4.0.
- Discusses the advantages and disadvantages of conventional technology meters and provides a rationale for retaining or displacing these meters.
- Focuses on the origin, development operating principles, and applications for the meters.
- Explores the development of each conventional flowmeter type, including the roles of companies like Siemens, ABB, Emerson, Foxboro, KROHNE, and Endress+Hauser.
