Abstract
Disclosed is a method of inspecting a flow rate measuring system used in a substrate processing system. The flow rate measuring system provides a gas flow path used for calculating a flow rate in a build-up method. A gas output by a flow rate controller of a gas supply unit of the substrate processing system may be supplied to the gas flow path. In the method, apart from a previously obtained initial value of a volume of the gas flow path, a volume of the gas flow path is obtained at the time of inspection of the flow rate measuring system. Then, the obtained volume is compared to the initial value.
