Abstract

A new large gas flow calibration facility, which will be owned by Kogas (Korea Gas Corporation) and operated by Kogas and KRISS (Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science), has been designed. The facility employs the closed loop, master meter method. The flow range is 20-24 000 m³/h, the pressure range is 10-50 bara, and the expected calibration and measurement capability (CMC) is 0.22-0.24% for all pressure ranges. <br />As of June 2013, the design of the new calibration facility is almost completed, except for the detailed design of the circulation compressor unit and the heat exchanger. It is scheduled to be finished by the end of 2015.
