Abstract
The paper present a liquid sodium flow measurement system developed and designed for the liquid sodium loop~\cite{Kolesnichenko:MHD:NaLoop}. This system includes in fact three independent flowmeters combined in one single device. Two of these are based on electromagnetic (conduction and induction) methods, and one uses a thermocouple cross-correlation flow measurement method. All three methods were tested in calibration experiments. Tables 1, Figs 7, Refs 7.
