"""Comparing with the classification of flow meters according to BS EN7405 (British Standard) Method of Unitary Analysis, Synthesis and Classification of Flow Meters (Method of UASCF) is a great advance.

Here, the work done using ""UASCF"" (then UASCF-CGS) methods to establish a unitary universal analysis/synthesis and classification of flowmeters is impressive, complete, and very convincing, thanks to a very high degree of rigor of Dr. Moțit and his thorough knowledge of this field of flow measurement.

Author Information

"Horia Mihai Moţit, PhD, graduated from Automatic Control and Computers Faculty, University Politehnica, in Bucharest, Romania, and received a PhD in flow measurement in 2000. He developed a prodigious career with over 30 years of research, design, and production of a considerable variety of types of flow meters (variable area flow meters, insertion flow meters, oscillating piston meters, bypass flow meters, flow measurement structures using flumes, test stands for volumetric calibration, respectively, for gravimetric calibration of flow meters). He received the distinguished awards for creativity: National Prize for Patented Inventions (2nd place) in 1985, National Prize for Patented Inventions (1st place) in 1987. He has achieved a significant number of patents in the field, regarding new types of industrial flow meters (then produced in a large number) including the world premiere ""method for the determination of conversion curves of flow scales of gas variable area flow meters, using only water."" Dr. Moţit is the author of several reference books in the field, of which the most relevant include the following: Industrial Flow Measurement (1988), Meters (water meters, heat meters, gas meters) (1997), and Variable Area Flow meters (2006). He developed an intense scientific activity in the flow measurement field, by presenting more than 30 lectures to national and international symposia/congresses and publishing more than 35 articles in national technical and scientific journals. Dr. Moţit was Director of the R&D department for flow measurement of Measurement and Control Instrument Company S.A. in Otopeni (Bucharest), Fine Mechanics Company S.A. in Bucharest, Mechatronics and Measuring Technique Institute in Bucharest. Dr. Moțit was then the Technical Director of Schlumberger Industries in Romania. Dr. Moţit is the Founding President of the Romanian Technical Standardization Committee for Flow Measurement (1990–2006), the member and Romania’s representative at IMEKO/TC9—Flow Measurement Committee (1991–present), the Founding President of A.A.I.R.—Control and Instrumentation Association of Romania (1990–present), and the Editorial Director of Automation and Instrumentation journal (1991–present)."
