Summary:In a Doppler ultrasonic flowmeter, to obtain a precise flow rate a flow rate calculation equation that corrects a quantization error occurring to a spatial resolution is used. An ultrasonic transducer transmits/receives ultrasonic pulses, and subject the resulting received signals to A/D conversion after a predetermined process is applied thereto. A computation control section calculates the flow velocity distribution. Then, the flow rate is calculated based on the flow rate calculation equation, which corrects the quantization error occurring to the spatial resolution.
