Calorimetry method for flow of gaseous fuel introduces heat at controlled rate from burner to thermal transfer element with heat sink, and measures thermal state parameter

摘要

Heat released from the burner (9) is supplied to the input (8) of a thermal transfer element (6). On its output side, a heat sink (11), continuously removes heat at a defined rate. One or more thermal state parameters of the heat transfer element is/are measured (12) and controlled by adjustment of the rate of thermal input- and/or output. An independent claim is included for the corresponding gas calorimeter.
