← ScienceWhich consequence results when an ultrasonic flowmeter misapplies the Bernoulli equation?
A)Elevated signal-to-noise ratio occurs
B)Inaccurate flow velocity measurement results✓
C)Harmonic distortion corrupts the signal
D)Transducer acoustic impedance mismatches appear
💡 Explanation
Inaccurate flow velocity measurements result because misapplication of Bernoulli's equation leads to an incorrect pressure-velocity relationship assumption. Therefore, the calculated velocity through transit time differs, rather than elevated noise, harmonic distortion or impedance mismatches, which are separate error sources.
