  2. Gas meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_meter

    A gas meter is a specialized flow meter, used to measure the volume of fuel gases such as natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas. Gas meters are used at residential, commercial, and industrial buildings that consume fuel gas supplied by a gas utility. Gases are more difficult to measure than liquids, because measured volumes are highly ...

  3. Pressure measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_measurement

    Checking tire pressure with a spring and piston tire-pressure gauge. Pressure measurement is the measurement of an applied force by a fluid (liquid or gas) on a surface. Pressure is typically measured in units of force per unit of surface area. Many techniques have been developed for the measurement of pressure and vacuum.

  4. Pressure cooking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_cooking

    A stovetop pressure cooker. Pressure cooking is the process of cooking food with the use of high pressure steam and water or a water-based liquid, inside a sealed vessel called a pressure cooker; the high pressure limits boiling and creates higher temperatures not possible at lower pressures which allow food to be cooked much faster than at normal pressure.

    pressure of a liquid or gas in a closed tube ruler: for measuring length saccharometer: amount of sugar in a solution seismometer: seismic waves (for example, earthquakes) sextant: location on Earth's surface (used in naval navigation) spectrometer: properties of light spectrophotometer: intensity of light as a function of wavelength speedometer

  6. Gas pycnometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_pycnometer

    A gas pycnometer is a laboratory device used for measuring the density —or, more accurately, the volume —of solids, be they regularly shaped, porous or non-porous, monolithic, powdered, granular or in some way comminuted, employing some method of gas displacement and the volume:pressure relationship known as Boyle's Law.

  7. Svea 123 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svea_123

    Svea 123 stove. The Svea 123 is a small liquid-fuel (naphtha, commonly referred to as white gas or Coleman fuel) pressurized-burner camping stove that traces its origins to designs first pioneered in the late 19th century. Although it was originally made in Sweden it is now built in Taiwan by Optimus.

  8. Timeline of temperature and pressure measurement technology

    1874 — Herbert McLeod invents the McLeod gauge. 1885 — Calender-Van Duesen invented the platinum resistance temperature device. 1887 — Richard Assmann invents the psychrometer (Wet and Dry Bulb Thermometers) 1892 — Henri-Louis Le Châtelier builds the first optical pyrometer.

  9. Thermodynamic instruments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_instruments

    Although pressure is defined mechanically, a pressure-measuring device called a barometer may also be constructed from a sample of an ideal gas held at a constant temperature. A calorimeter is a device which is used to measure and define the internal energy of a system. Some common thermodynamic meters are: Thermometer – a device which ...
