A method of determining volumetric flow rates of gas and liquid in a highly inclined conduit. The method includes measuring the velocity the gas, measuring the velocity of the liquid, calculating a fractional amount of the cross-sectional area of the conduit occupied by the gas and by the liquid, and calculating the volumetric flow rates from the measurements of velocity and from the calculated fractional amounts of the cross-sectional area of the conduit occupied by the gas and by the liquid. In a preferred embodiment, the gas velocity is measured by cross-correlating measurements of two spaced apart temperature sensors after momentarily heating the gas. The liquid velocity is measured by a spinner flowmeter.
