A method for improving flowmeter accuracy is provided. The flowmeter comprises at least one flow tube, at least one pickoff sensor attached to the flow tube, at least one driver attached to the flow tube, and meter electronics in communication with the at least one pickoff sensor and driver. The method comprises the steps of vibrating at least one flow tube in a drive mode vibration with the at least one driver and receiving a sensor signal based on a vibrational response to the drive mode vibration from the at least one pickoff sensor. An unremediated density is derived with the flowmeter. An unremediated mass flow is derived with the flowmeter. An extended drive gain is derived with the flowmeter. At least one flow variable is received. A density ratio is calculated. A plurality of wet gas coefficients is provided. A dry gas mass flow rate is calculated with the density ratio and at least one of the plurality of wet gas coefficients.
