Gas flow measurement Gas flow measurement This option allows the user to determine the gas velocity at a single poin by means of a pitot tube (order separately). Based on the differential pressure between the ports of the pitot tube and the absolute pressure, the gas velocity is calculated.
Gas flow measurement 1.1.2 Set parameters f Select in the context menu Gas flow measurement. f Enter the value „Pitot factor“. Please take the value from the documen- tation of the used pitot tube. f Select CHOOSE UNTIS f Select the wanted units fpr the measurements OPTION 4 / 8 Version 01...
Gas flow measurement Cross-section area For measuring the gas flow must be known the cross-section area. f Select the geometry of the cross-section area, circle, square or rectangle. f Enter the required value. Ö The cross-section area will be calculated. After returning to the measuring menu, the measurement starts auto- matically.
Appendix Appendix Calculating the molar mass The molar mass of a gas depends on the gas proportions. This will be calculated on the equation 1 Equation 1: molar mass M = 0.00001* (32*[O ] + 44*[CO ] + 18*[H O] + 16*[CH ] + 28*[N ]: oxygen in [%] ]: carbon dioxide in [%]...
Appendix : mean value of pressure difference in [Pa] density of gas in The geometry of the used pitot tube will be considered by the pitot fac- tor. Equation 4: flow velocity with pitot factor : pitot factor pitot Calculating the current volume flow The current volume flow is, the current Flow velocity multiplied by the cross-section area.
