COMPRESSED GAS CYLINDER GAS DENSITY MEASUREMENT

A pressure vessel assembly (28) includes a pressure vessel (10) and a gas density gauge (30). The pressure vessel includes a vessel wall (15) defining an interior cavity (17). The gas density gauge includes a parallel plate capacitor (32) having a pair of plates (34 and 36). Opposing surfaces (38 an...

Zusammenfassung:A pressure vessel assembly (28) includes a pressure vessel (10) and a gas density gauge (30). The pressure vessel includes a vessel wall (15) defining an interior cavity (17). The gas density gauge includes a parallel plate capacitor (32) having a pair of plates (34 and 36). Opposing surfaces (38 and 40) of the plates are separated by a distance (d) across an open gap (44). A capacitance of the capacitor is related to a density of a gas within the open gap.
