How accurate are domestic water meters in the real world?

An EMPIR-funded research project

Online 14:00 BST
  • Are water meters as accurate under unsteady flows such as those generated by washing machines or toilets?
  • Does water quality influence meter accuracy?
  • How well can water meters detect leakage?

To answer these questions, participants in an EMPIR-funded research project, MetroWaMet, have built experimental facilities and developed protocols to test domestic water meters under fluctuating flows, low flows and with varying water qualities. Commercially-available domestic meter types have been included in the test programme and the results are being used to create a ‘virtual flow meter’ model.

In this webinar, presented by Sarah Jones from TÜV SÜD National Engineering Laboratory, attendees will hear about the progress of the collaborative MetroWaMet project since the previous webinar in 2020
