Abstract: Specific Gravity, with reference to a gas, is the ratio of gas density to that of dry air under the same conditions of pressure and temperature, and it is also frequently defined as the ratio of molecular weights, as in the instance of gas analysis. The specific gravity of a gas must be known in order to calculate a factor, F-, to apply in cases of gas flow measurement by orifice meter, Venturi, bell-mouthed orifice, choke nipple, critical flow prover, orifice well tester, and other measurement devices included in the general category referred to as Inferential metering systems.
