Aims and Scope
Flow Measurement and Instrumentation is dedicated to disseminating the latest research results on all aspects of flow measurement, in both closed conduits and open channels. The design of flow measurement systems involves a wide variety of multidisciplinary activities including modelling the flow sensor, the fluid flow and the sensor/fluid interactions through the use of computation techniques; the development of advanced transducer systems and their associated signal processing and the laboratory and field assessment of the overall system under ideal and disturbed conditions.

FMI is the essential forum for critical information exchange, and contributions are particularly encouraged in the following areas of interest:

Modelling: the application of mathematical and computational modelling to the interaction of fluid dynamics with flowmeters, including flowmeter behaviour, improved flowmeter design and installation problems. Application of CAD/CAE techniques to flowmeter modelling are eligible.

Design and development: the detailed design of the flowmeter head and/or signal processing aspects of novel flowmeters. Emphasis is given to papers identifying new sensor configurations, multisensor flow measurement systems, non-intrusive flow metering techniques and the application of microelectronic techniques in smart or intelligent systems.

Calibration techniques: including descriptions of new or existing calibration facilities and techniques, calibration data from different flowmeter types, and calibration intercomparison data from different laboratories.

Installation effect data: dealing with the effects of non-ideal flow conditions on flowmeters. Papers combining a theoretical understanding of flowmeter behaviour with experimental work are particularly welcome.

First review by three reviewers, a total of 20 review comments, with two reviewers providing very positive evaluations and the other reviewer's evaluation being acceptable. The editor requested extensive revisions, which were actually easy to make and were completed within three days. The second review resulted in direct acceptance, and the paper has now been officially accepted.

Personal experience: The journal's processing speed is very fast, with the first review taking less than a month and the second review taking one month, which is quite good. Based on the feedback time for the review comments, the reviewers mostly reviewed the paper over the weekends. The review comments were very objective and the reviewers were responsible. They even pointed out errors in the names of the cited references. Although the journal's impact factor is not high, it is still recognized within the industry, with a factor of 2.037, which is decent. Overall, I would give it a score of 9.5.

There were a total of three reviewers, who provided many suggestions for revision. Although it was rejected, the journal is still good and worth recommending.
