ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method are provided utilizing volume measurement means and temperature determining means for empirically determining the coefficient of thermal expansion for a given fluid. Said apparatus and method are particularly suited for use in testing the tightness of storage vessels and may be used in conjunction with currently available tank testing equipment to provide more accurate leakage readings than may presently be obtained.
