The invention comprises an improvement to the prior art differential pressure fluid flow meter described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,308,581. The prior art fluid flow meter includes a longitudinal recess angled to the surface of the vessel so as to form a ramp, and a dynamic port surface angled extending from the floor of the ramp to the surface. The dynamic port is formed in the dynamic port surface and is connected through a dynamic port channel to a pressure transponder. The improvement comprises combining the above described differential pressure fluid flow meter with a low pressure port, at an angle less than 90 degrees to the dynamic port, wherein fluid flow draws pressure from the low pressure port in a direction counter to fluid flow entering the dynamic port.
