Development of a Standard System for Metrological Assurance of Measurements of the Pressure of Saturated Vapors of Petroleum and Petroleum Products

  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Results from the development of a standard system that implements a new method for measuring the pressure of vapors of saturated petroleum and petroleum products are presented. The characteristics of reference materials certified on the system are presented. The advantages of the system as compared to foreign analogs are evaluated, and the prospect for automation and approval of the system as a working standard is demonstrated.
