    Abstract: A method for verifying the reliability of ascertained measurement data of an ultrasonic, flow measurement made according to the travel-time difference method, wherein an ultrasonic flow measuring device having at least two ultrasonic transducers is used to transmit and receive ultrasonic signals inclined in or counter to a flow direction of a measured medium. A first ultrasound disturbance signal is registered within a first time window before receiving a first ultrasound wanted signal, which essentially propagates through the measured medium between the transducers. The first ultrasound disturbance signal propagates at least partially in the measured medium between the ultrasonic transducers, wherein a second ultrasound disturbance signal is registered within a second time window before receiving a second ultrasound wanted signal, which essentially propagates through the measured medium between the transducers. The second ultrasound disturbance signal propagates at least partially in the measured medium between the ultrasonic transducers, and the first and second ultrasound wanted signals are associated respectively with two ultrasonic signals, which are sent in opposing directions through the medium. A quality criterion is ascertained for evaluating the measurement uncertainty of a measured value proportional to the travel-time difference ascertained from the first and second ultrasound wanted signals, wherein the ascertaining of the quality criterion includes a difference forming between the first and second disturbance signals.

    Abstract: An arrangement of ultrasonic transducers of a clamp-on ultrasonic measuring device includes at least one pair of ultrasonic transducers, which include: in a measurement arrangement, an axial arrangement distance relative to a measurement tube axis; an emitting transducer apparatus designed to generate an ultrasonic signal field, which has, in the coupling body, a first longitudinal axis parallel to a transducer longitudinal axis; the ultrasonic signal field has an opening angle in the medium; the first longitudinal axis defines a reference signal path; the reference signal path defines an axial reference distance of a reference arrangement relative to centroids of the ultrasonic transducers; the axial arrangement distance is determined by the centroids; the arrangement distance is less than the reference distance; and a target difference between the reference distance and the arrangement distance is dependent on at least the opening angle of the ultrasonic signal field in the medium.
