Configure the Variables tab of the Prover record

On this tab, you will enter information about your prover's physical attributes and the surrounding environment.

To assign the variables associated with the meter prove

1. Select (...) to assign the application record that provides the Atmospheric Pressure information.

2. Select (...) to assign the application record that provides the Pipe Thermal Expansion information.

3. Select (...) to assign the application record that provides the Cubical Expansion information.

   This field supplies the cubical expansion rate of the material from which the prover is made, per ºF. Typically values are 1.86 * 10-5 for mild steel and fall in a range of values from 2.4 to 2.9 * 10-5 per ºF for stainless steels.

4. Select (...) to assign the application record that provides the Area Thermal information.

   This field supplies the area thermal coefficient of expansion for the prover chamber. This is primarily used for small volume provers.

5. Select (...) to assign the application record that provides the Linear Thermal information.

   This field supplies the linear thermal coefficient of expansion for the displacer shaft. This is primarily used for small volume provers.
