Abstract: Following the end of World War II, the Research Engineering group of Rockwell was assigned a basic project to explore the feasibility of developing Improved devices for the accurate measurement of large volumes of gaseous vapors. Many possible conceots were investigated and discarded. But early in this initial investigative stage, one concept stood out as having a great potential. This concept was based on the turbine principle. We had an existing In-house capability in this area since we had at that time experience in the manufacture of turbine meters for liquid applications. However, liquids are about 1000 times as dense as gas vapors so that a considerable amount of design engineering had to be done to develop a gas turbine meter that would perform satisfactorily at the relatively low kinetic energy levels encountered when metering gas.
