Abstract

A method and a measuring apparatus for determining specific quantities for the gas quality in which the gas or gas mixture flows through an ultrasonic flow sensor as well as through a microthermal sensor, and the former is used for determining the sound and flow velocity and the latter for determining the thermal conductivity and the thermal capacity of the gas or gas mixture. The sound velocity, the thermal conductivity and the thermal capacity are subsequently used for the correlation of the specific quantities for the gas quality.
