Abstract: Providing natural gas service to multifamily dwellings has been identified as a key area of new load for the natural gas industry. One of the major obstacles in providing gas service to individual multifamily dwelling customers is metering of the load. Existing residential meters are too large and require valuable space in multifamily dwellings. This paper describes the current research at the Gas Research Institute involved in developing a smaller, compact meter that is suitable for multifamily dwelling application. The preliminary results of an extensive gas industry survey detailing the required specifications for a new meter are discussed. Three different technologies under consideration: mechanical, electronic mass flow, and fluidic are discussed. Future work will include installation of a prototype compact meter in interior piping test sites.
