[0002] Ultrasonic heat meters use ultrasonic methods to measure flow and display the heat energy released or absorbed by water flowing through a heat exchange system. They measure the water flow through the ultrasonic heat meter pipe section to visualize the data. Conventional ultrasonic heat meter pipe sections are generally cast, then machined, and finally sandblasted. This processing method has high raw material costs, thick pipe wall, complex process, high cost, and high labor costs. In order to improve the traditional processing technology, people now use a fully welded ultrasonic heat meter pipe section processing method.
