Gusseted pressure meter

A pressure meter, comprising:

• a conical shaped pressure meter having a first end section and a second end section substantially opposite the first end section, wherein the first end section is located at the smaller end of the conical shape and wherein the second end section is located at the larger end of the conical shape;
• a first set of gussets comprising three gussets, wherein each of the three gussets of the first set comprises a first end mechanically connected to the first end section and a second end that facilitates mechanical connection to the inside of a fluid conveyance object and wherein the three gussets of the first set are substantially equidistantly spaced;
• a second set of gussets comprising three gussets, wherein each of the three gussets of the second set comprises a first end mechanically connected to the second end section and a second end that facilitates mechanical connection to the inside of a fluid conveyance object and wherein the three gussets of the second set are substantially equidistantly spaced;
• wherein at least one of:
• the gussets of the first set and the gussets of the second set is angled with respect to the conical shaped pressure meter;
• and
• at least one pressure sensor located at the larger end of the conical shape, wherein the pressure sensor measures a pressure at the larger end of the conical shape.

A pressure meter system, comprising:

• a section of piping;
• a conical shaped pressure meter located within the section of piping;
• the conical shaped pressure meter having a first end section and a second end section substantially opposite the first end section, wherein the first end section is located at the smaller end of the conical shape and wherein the second end section is located at the larger end of the conical shape;
• a first set of gussets, wherein each of the gussets of the first set comprises a first end mechanically connected to the first end section and a second end mechanically connected to the inside of the section of piping;
• a second set of gussets, wherein each of the gussets of the second set comprises a first end mechanically connected to the second end section and a second end mechanically connected to the inside of the section of piping;
• and
• at least one pressure sensor located at the larger end of the conical shape, wherein the pressure sensor measures a pressure at the larger end of the conical shape.
