Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Gasometer

👉 A gasometer is a device used to measure the pressure and volume of gases. It consists of a tube that contains a small amount of gas, which is compressed or expanded by the atmosphere around it. The gas pressure is then measured using a barometer, while the volume is calculated based on the total gas volume at different altitudes above sea level. Gasometers are commonly used in navigation and aviation for determining atmospheric conditions and altitude.
