Description

The PVT Apparatus is designed to measure the volume of a given amount of gas or liquid as a function of its temperature and pressure. The apparatus is completely automated and is computer controlled in order to yield precise data.

The instrument consists of  a pressure generation, control, and measurement system, a temperature control and measurement system, a stainless steel gas chamber, and a Windows based software for ease of operation and accuracy of the results.

Principles of Operation

The volume of the chamber of the apparatus is determined by calibration. The nonreacting gas or liquid is introduced into the chamber. The program automatically changes the temperature and pressure to the desired set values. The change in volume is recorded.
