Test results for a non-standard type of venturi meter with a wide throat metering a mixture of water and crushed bakelite or water and basalt chippings are presented. In addition, results using a 90° bend as a flow meter are given, and a ‘vertical counterflow meter’ is described, which measures both mixture velocity and concentration
