Abstract
An ultrasonic measurement apparatus () for determining a fluid velocity of a fluid () flowing in a piping () is provided, the apparatus () having a measurement body () inserted into the piping () and thus forming a section of the piping (), the measurement body () comprising a flow channel () for the fluid () and a surrounding channel wall (), wherein at least one ultrasonic transducer (-) is mounted from the outside on the channel wall () so that an oscillating member of the transducer (-) couples onto a partial region (-) of the channel wall () and thus the partial region (-) acts as an oscillating membrane of the ultrasonic transducer (-). The ultrasonic transducer (-) is arranged within a bulge () of the channel wall () which protrudes into the flow channel ().
