Abstract
A system for the measurement and control of the rate of BTU input to a gas burner wherein a signal is generated corresponding to the square root of the product of the burner inlet pressure multiplied by the in-situ density olf the gas, which, multiplied by a signal of constant value, corresponds to the mass flow of gas to the burner. This signal is then multiplied by a second signal of constant value to generate a signal corresponding to the rate of BTU input to the burner and which is compared with a set point signal to regulate the mass flow of gas to the burner as required to maintain the rate of BTU input to the burner at set point.
