Purpose

To examine the possibilities for dry calibration or in situ calibration for flowmeters in the field.

Design/methodology/approach

Reviews history and current situation with regard to in situ/dry calibration of flowmeters. Its acceptability for modern flowmeters is considered. Various options are considered to achieve dry calibration or in situ calibration. The possibility of action at a distance via the internet, for example, naturally follows from these developments.

Findings

The paper concludes that this development is likely to be of importance to manufacturers. It will need to be addressed by certification authorities.

Originality/value

The concepts will reduce the cost of calibration and the discussion should be of value to research workers, industry and government.
