Abstract

As a foundational technology supporting CO2 reduction and utilization, measurement of CO2 quantities is important, and flow rate measurement using flowmeters represents a promising option. Therefore, efforts are underway to measure CO2 flow rate traceable to the national standard for CO2 quantity evaluation. In this study, critical flow nozzles are calibrated under air and CO2 conditions, and flowmeter evaluation tests are conducted using the nozzles calibrated in Air and CO2.
