Abstract: The flow of natural gas can be calculated from the differential pressure measured across an orifice plate and the density or static pressure of the gas measured at flowing conditions. These basic measurements can then be made more precise by compensating for the specific variables listed in the AGA Report No. 3. The electronic gas flow computer will take these variables or factors into consideration and display the corrected flow rate. This flow rate, constantly being updated every few seconds, can be integrated to obtain the total volume for a given period of time. If needed, a printer may be installed to produce a permanent record, and then this data can be transmitted to a central location. Therefore, the computer improves measurement techniques and allows the office to receive information from the field much faster and in a more readily useable form.
