Turbine Flow Meter (with images)

One method, I used to measure the furel consumtion was a turbine flow meter.
Because a turbine does not measure exact changing flow rates, I measured at constant speeds.

The test track is a flat round course, driven at early sunday morning without influence of traffic. The weather conditions were equal. With GPS, I held constant speed. Average values came through multiple measurements.

Units are metric. km/h kilometers per hour. Consumption: liters per 100 km.

It is possible to change the aerodynamic parts within 15 minutes, so the time between the test is short.
