Comprehensive evaluation of gas-specific gravity instruments and how they perform in real-world testing.

This detailed study from the National Bureau of Standards catalogs instruments designed to determine, indicate, or record the specific gravity of gases, sharing test results, corrections, and practical recommendations.

Readers get an overview of the testing plan, the equipment and gases used, and the approach to interpreting results. The report outlines how various devices were tested, what factors affect accuracy, and how manufacturers might improve performance once war-related restrictions are lifted.

In-depth descriptions of multiple instruments studied, including their construction and operation
Analysis of sources of error, such as temperature, humidity, and timing variations
Corrections and methods to evaluate and improve instrument accuracy
Practical guidance for selecting the best instrument for specific gas tests

Ideal for engineers, lab managers, and professionals working with gas density and specific gravity measurements who need solid, test-based guidance.
