Methods and apparatus for measuring the flow rate of a fluid within tubing utilize probes to measure a differential pressure of the fluid along a section of the tubing. Various calculations utilize this pressure differential to determine the flow rate of the fluid. For example, determining the flow rate for the fluid may include calculating the flow rate utilizing the differential pressure measured within an equation related to at least one of friction loss through the tubing, elevation head loss through the tubing, and/or head loss through the tubing due to a change in direction of fluid flow through the tubing.
