Zusammenfassung:A system and method are disclosed, that allow for the determination of a mass of a fluid within a container by first vibrating an external surface of a container, where the container contains a fluid (such as a compressed fluid, a gas, a liquid, a mixture of a gas and liquid, or a supercritical fluid). Then, vibration data is received at the external surface of the container, and the vibration data is then converted into one or more frequencies. The mass of the fluid in the container is then estimated based on the one or more frequencies.
