Abstract

Meter electronics () for quantifying a fluid being transferred is provided. The meter electronics () includes an interface () configured to communicate with a flowmeter assembly of a vibratory flowmeter and receive a vibrational response and a processing system () coupled to the interface (). The processing system () is configured to measure a volume flow and a density for a predetermined time portion of the fluid transfer, determine if the fluid transfer is non-aerated during the predetermined time portion, if the predetermined time portion is non-aerated then add a volume-density product to an accumulated volume-density product and add the volume flow to an accumulated volume flow, and determine a non-aerated volume-weighted density for the fluid transfer by dividing the accumulated volume-density product by the accumulated volume flow.
