Calibration of Critical Nozzles on Standards of the Units of the Rate of Flow of a Gas

  • MECHANICAL MEASUREMENTS
  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

The article discusses the interaction of the standard and a calibrated critical nozzle as well as the use of critical nozzles that have been calibrated relative to standard nozzles for the dissemination of the unit from a standard to subordinate measuring instruments.
