Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to measuring methods for determining a flow rate of a process gas, contained in a gas pressure vessel charged with overpressure, escaping from the gas pressure vessel. In one example embodiment, the method includes: exerting a vessel weight force from the gas pressure vessel together with the contained process gas; compensating for the vessel weight force by means of a counterweight force exerted by a counterweight, or the counterweight force by means of the vessel weight force exerted by the counterweight, at least partially to a resultant measured weight force; determining the measured weight force at at least two points in time; and determining the flow rate of the process gas using the measured weight force determined at the at least two points in time.
Measuring method for determining a flow rate of a process gas, contained in a gas pressure vessel charged with overpressure, and escaping from the gas pressure vessel with the flow rate, wherein the method including the following steps:
A measuring apparatus for determining a flow rate of a process gas, which is contained in a gas pressure vessel when charged with overpressure, and which escapes from the gas pressure vessel with the flow rate, wherein a vessel weight force is exerted from the gas pressure vessel together with the contained process gas, the measuring apparatus comprising:
