2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, the use of compressed natural gas (CNG) as fuel for automobiles has become popular due to problems such as energy measures and environmental measures. The natural gas is stored in a cylinder at a high pressure of, for example, about 200 kg / cm 2 , mounted on a vehicle body, and reduced to a predetermined pressure by a regulator to be supplied to an engine.

[0004] However, in the case of the above-mentioned apparatus, there is a possibility that the error width becomes large because the above-mentioned apparatus depends only on the fuel pressure and ignores temperature conditions and the like. In such a case,
Generally, use the pressure after temperature correction after temperature correction.
To eliminate the error. That is, a well-known boil-chal

Gas is pushed several hundred times the amount of gas
The distance between the children is very close. Newton's Ten Thousand
According to the law of gravitation, the gravitational force acting on two objects (molecules) is
Since it is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, increasing the pressure increases the molecular distance.
The separation is extremely small, so that the attraction between molecules can be ignored.
Level, and the pressure P changes in proportion to this attractive force.
Become Also, if a large number of molecules are packed in a certain container,
The volume of the child itself cannot be ignored , and
The effective (volume of flying molecules) volume V changes. Follow
At ultra-high pressure, the attractive force and volume due to gas molecules
The change cannot be ignored. For this reason,
Manage the amount of compressed natural gas (CNG) by converting it to an ideal state
It can be said that there is a problem in accuracy just by doing.
