Abstract
A method for determining compressibility of a flowing fluid includes: using a pump, driving a volume flow of the fluid through a measuring tube of a vibronic densimeter at a first pressure maintained using a throttle; determining a first density measured value of the fluid at the first pressure; determining a first pressure measured value at the first pressure; driving a volume flow of the fluid through the densimeter at a second pressure; determining a second density measured value at the second pressure different from the first pressure; determining a second pressure measured value at the second pressure; determining compressibility of the fluid based on the first density measured value, the second density measured value, the first pressure measured value and the second pressure measured value assuming the composition of the fluid is unchanged between the registering of the first density measured value and the second density measured value.
