Abstract: Gas measurement is the determination of a volume of gas at a particular temperature and pressure. The measurement should be as accurate as possible, making use of the best data and techniques available. The gas quantity is usually expressed in cubic feet at some specific temperature and pressure. As the price of gas, as well as other forms of energy are rapidly increasing, the accuracy of measurement is becoming more and more important. In order for a measurement man to have a better understanding of the principles of gas measurement, a basic understanding of the laws of gas behavior is a must. Natural gas is made up of a mixture of various gases. The mixture follows certain rules when subjected to pressure and temperature changes. In order to understand the behavior of this real gas, we should first learn something about the behavior of an ideal gas. The kinetic theory of gases is a good starting point.
