Abstract: Accuracy in measurement has always been of utmost concern in the gas industry however as gas supplies have decreased and the value of the product has gone up, the need for even more accurate methods of measurement have been sought. Electronic flow computers are fast becoming widespread in the gas industry. 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 flow computer will take these variables of factors into consideration and display the corrected flow rate. A printer can be installed to produce a permanent record, and the data can be transmitted to a central location.
