Hello,
I have been working on a personal project involving the transfer of liquid CO2. I want to figure out a way to measure the transfer of liquid CO2 from one cylinder (supply cylinder) to another (receiving cylinder) and get an exact measurement of how much CO2 was transferred into the receiving cylinder. I am interested in finding out if there is a way to determine the volume of liquid CO2 in the receiving cylinder by using pressure measurements. For example, if I know a certain volume of CO2 in a fixed size container produces a certain pressure measurement can I say that every transfer of liquid CO2 into a similar cylinder will produce the same volume, assuming all conditions are the same? Any direction is appreciated.
Parameters:
Regards,
David

Parameters:
- I do not want to use a flow meter as they are very expensive.
- I do not want to use a weight scale as I already used that method.
- For this experiment I want to transfer 16oz of liquid CO2 from the supply cylinder to the receiving cylinder.
- Let’s assume the supply tank is a standard 50lb Dip Tube CO2 liquid supply cylinder.
- Let’s assume the receiving cylinder is initially empty.
- Lest assume the receiving cylinder is rated for max 20oz capacity.
Regards,
David
