Abstract
There is provided a method of measuring a temperature of a gas in a line connected to a gas supply source and a decompressor, the line being divided by a first, a second and a third valve into a first line between the first valve and the second valve and a second line between the second valve and the third valve. A first pressure rise rate of a gas in the first line is measured when introducing a gas at a predetermined flow rate into the first and the second line. A second pressure rise rate of a gas in the first line is measured when introducing a gas at a predetermined flow rate only into the first line. A gas temperature in the first line is calculated based on known inner volume of the second line, the first pressure rise rate, and the second pressure rise rate.
