FIELD: technology for determining amount of natural gas being produced.
SUBSTANCE: gas counter is graduated as energy-measuring device and contains anemometer for determining mass flow of gas and block for processing results. Calibrating is performed on basis of basic gas mixture. During measurement of gas flow, measured value of energy consumption is multiplied by correction coefficient, which takes heat-creative ability of produced gas mixture into consideration. Aforementioned heat-creative ability is determined by external block.
EFFECT: inventions make it possible to determine by means of simple and cheap gas counter the actual energy consumption of expendable gas and to perform calculation of payment in accordance with produced quantity.
