Atmospheric Pressure – Effects in Gas Metering

Atmospheric Pressue - Effects in Gas Metering

Understanding the impact of atmospheric pressure on gas flow metering is critical for accurate measurement and billing. In this insightful article, Gareth Lake explains how weather-related fluctuations in atmospheric pressure can introduce bias in gas metering systems, especially those using gauge pressure transmitters.

The article covers:

  • How absolute pressure is calculated using atmospheric pressure.
  • The real-world impact of pressure changes on gas flow accuracy.
  • Potential financial implications of even small variations in atmospheric pressure.

Check out the full article to learn more about minimising bias and ensuring measurement accuracy.

Part 2 is coming soon with solutions to mitigate these variations.
