ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for measuring a gas concentration comprises a conduit through which an objective gas to be measured flows, a ultrasonic transmitting and receiving element fixed in a straight portion of the conduit and a reflecting plate fixed in the straight portion to face to the ultrasonic transmitting and receiving element. The apparatus further comprises a calibration gas source for supplying a calibration gas of which components and component ratio are preliminarily known, temperature sensors for measuring the temperature of the calibration gas flowing through the conduit, a propagation time calculating means for calculating the time period for propagation of the ultrasonic through the calibration gas in the conduit, a calibration means for calibrating the reference distance between the ultrasonic transmitting and receiving element and the reflecting plate based on the calculation results of the propagation time calculating means.
