Zusammenfassung
Currently all measurement capabilities for high-pressure gas flows in Germany are based on a single traceability chain. However, there are three primary standards available that can be made traceable without mutual de-pendencies. In this study PTB investigates the benefits of combining three independent traceability chains. The applied method is identical to the harmonization of the high-pressure cubic metre of natural gas. For two G1000 transfer reference meters the measurement uncertainty decreases from 0.110% to 0.089%. For the working standards the CMCs decrease from 0.156% and 0.175% to 0.142% and 0.163% respectively. When only two chains are used the CMCs of the working standards improve with approximately 0.01%. More scenarios are explored. The development of a new primary standard with a CMC of 0.10% has the potential to improve the CMCs of the working standards with approximately 0.02%.
