2. Gas meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_meter

   The volume of gas flow provided by a gas meter is just that, a reading of volume. Gas volume does not take into account the quality of the gas or the amount of heat available when burned. Utility customers are billed according to the heat available in the gas. The quality of the gas is measured and adjusted for in each billing cycle.

3. Flow coefficient - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_coefficient

   The use of the flow coefficient offers a standard method of comparing valve capacities and sizing valves for specific applications that is widely accepted by industry. The general definition of the flow coefficient can be expanded into equations modeling the flow of liquids, gases and steam using the discharge coefficient.

4. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

   Two-gauge pressure regulator connected to gas cylinder used for breathing gas supply. Pressure regulators are used with diving cylinders for Scuba diving. The tank may contain pressures in excess of 3,000 pounds per square inch (210 bar), which could cause a fatal barotrauma injury to a person breathing it directly. A demand controlled ...

5. Choked flow - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choked_flow

   Orifice plate includes derivation of non-choked gas flow equation. de Laval nozzles are venturi tubes that produce supersonic gas velocities as the tube and the gas are first constricted and then the tube and gas are expanded beyond the choke plane. Rocket engine nozzles discusses how to calculate the exit velocity from nozzles used in rocket ...

6. Gas cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_cylinder

   The size of a pressurised gas container that may be classed as a gas cylinder is typically 0.5 litres to 150 litres. Smaller containers may be termed gas cartridges, and larger may be termed gas tubes, tanks, or other specific type of pressure vessel.

7. Gas holder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_holder

   A gas holder or gasholder, also known as a gasometer, is a large container in which natural gas or town gas (coal gas or formerly also water gas) is stored near atmospheric pressure at ambient temperatures. The volume of the container follows the quantity of stored gas, with pressure coming from the weight of a movable cap.

9. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

   Furthermore, a direct measure of the density of the fluid is obtained. Coriolis measurement can be very accurate irrespective of the type of gas or liquid that is measured; the same measurement tube can be used for hydrogen gas and bitumen without recalibration. [citation needed] Coriolis flowmeters can be used for the measurement of natural ...
