Development and Commissioning of Gas Flow Meters — Thomas Radermacher, Stefan Roth, David Smyczek, Jochen Steinmann, Nick Thamm, and •Hanja Wehrle — RWTH Aachen University - Physics Institute III B, Aachen, Germany

Gas flow meters will be installed in the new Gas Monitoring Chambers (GMCs) of the T2K time projection chambers. The flow meters measure the heat transfer caused by the gas flow using platinum resistors. This offers an efficient solution for monitoring the gas flow through the GMCs. The construction, calibration and performance of the flow meters are presented.
