ABSTRACT An ultrasonic apparatus measures the concentration and flow rate of a sample gas by calculating a possible propagation time range on the basis of the gas temperature, determining whether or not the phases at which two first trigger signals, respectively generated on the basis of forward and backward waveforms of the ultrasonic waves, coincide with each other, processing the zero-cross signals so that the phases coincide with each other, obtaining reference zero-cross time instant by calculating mean value of the forward and backward zero-cross time instants, obtaining an ultrasonic reception point by subtracting an integral multiple of the cycle of the ultrasonic waves so that the results of the subtraction falls into a possible propagation time range and estimating the ultrasonic propagation time on the basis of the ultrasonic reception point.

Selon la présente invention, un appareil ultrasonore permet de mesurer la concentration et le débit d'un échantillon de gaz. Ledit procédé de mesure consiste à calculer une fourchette de temps de propagation possible sur la base de la température gazeuse, à déterminer si les phases auxquelles deux premiers signaux de déclenchement ont été engendrés respectivement à partir de formes d'ondes progressives et régressives des ondes ultrasonores, coïncident ou non entre elles, à traiter les signaux de passage à zéro de telle façon que les phases coïncident entre elles, à obtenir un instant du temps de passage à zéro de référence par calcul de la valeur moyenne des instants de temps de passage à zéro progressifs et régressifs, à obtenir un point de réception ultrasonore par soustraction d'un multiple entier du cycle des ondes ultrasonores, de telle manière que les résultats de la soustraction correspondent à une fourchette de temps de propagation possible et, enfin, à estimer le temps de propagation ultrasonore en fonction du point de réception ultrasonore.
