Abstract
The present approach relates to establishing metrics for the computation of uncertainty boundaries for mean values for pressure and temperature drop error and mean values for mass flow error. Using such metric, sensor inaccuracies may be accounted for in the calibration and/or estimation processes of a virtual flow meter. For example, these values may be employed in the assessment of improvement in a calibration process of virtual flow meters, which will facilitate maintaining the accuracy of such virtual flow meters.
