摘要： A heat meter for measuring the amount of heat consumed in a region. A heat exchanger is supplied with heated fluid through an inlet pipe which carries temperature sensors for sending signals to a control. The control also receives signals from a temperature sensor in an outlet pipe carrying fluid away from the region. A low power electric heater is mounted between the sensors to add a known amount of heat to the fluid. The control calculates the heat power consumed in the region based on the temperature difference across the regions and the temperature difference across the region and the temperature difference across the heater.

摘要： A meter to measure the volumetric flow rate of a liquid, for example water, is formed with a pipe forming a liquid flow path containing a low power electrical heater. A first temperature sensor measures the temperature T of the liquid adjacent to an upstream end of the heater and a second temperature sensor measures the temperature T.sub.2 of the liquid adjacent to a downstream end of the heater. The heater adds heat power of a value P to the liquid. A control arrangement comprising a computer means calculates the flow rate Q using the expression ##EQU1## where ST.sub.1 and DT.sub.1 are respectively the specific heat capacity of the liquid and the density of the liquid at the temperature T.sub.1 measured by the first sensor.

摘要： A method and apparatus for measuring the calorific value of a gas. The apparatus includes a chamber to which a gas in question, for example natural gas, is supplied through an inlet and leaves through an outlet. The speed of sound SoS at ambient temperature is measured using any suitable method such as electronic control and a calculating device and an ultra-sound emitter and an ultra-sound receiver. The ambient temperatures Ta, is observed by a temperature sensor, and a thermal conductivity sensor measures the thermal conductivity of the gas at two different temperatures above the ambient temperature. One value ThCH, of the thermal conductivity is measured at 70° C. above ambient and the other value ThCL of the thermal conductivity is measured at 50° C. above ambient.
