摘要:
The invention relates to a method for measuring the volume of flowing substances, in particular fuel, by means of a screw spindle volumeter, comprising the following steps: detection of the rotatin of a screw spindle by means of a sensor and production of impulses, the temporal sequence of which is representative of the angular speed of the screw spindle; repeated measuring of the time interval between succcessive impulses; depending on the measured time interval, selection of a volume value that is predetermined for the corresponding time interval, whereby the volume value is representative of the volume flowing through the volumeter, at the corresponding angular speed of the spindle, per determined angle of rotation of the spindle, addition of the volume values selected successively for different time interval measurements, and establishing and, preferably, display of a total volume value, based on the sum obtained by continuous addition of the volume values during the entire measuring of volume.
