Abstract
A method and apparatus is disclosed that determines the density (602) of a material flowing through a Coriolis flow meter. The density is used to infer the pressure (608) of the flowing material. The inferred pressure may be used to correct for the secondary pressure effect in the Coriolis flow meter or may be reported to an external device.
