Abstract: An apparatus for controlling the flow of a gas, containing a controllable valve, wherein the position of the valve and the gas pressure upstream of the valve are measured and used in conjunction with a first lookup table to determine the flow rate of the gas through the valve; and a flow restrictor upstream of the controllable valve, wherein the temperature of the flow restrictor and the gas pressure upstream and downstream of the flow restrictor are measured and used in conjunction with a second lookup table to determine the flow rate of the gas through the flow restrictor.

Abstract: An informational computerized system displays the buy/sell result of the shares of Share Investment Funds at the stock exchange, and includes a processing unit with software connected via cable links with units for text and graphic information display and for data input. The processing unit is equipped with functions for data reception via the input unit and storage of database information, and a function for real time share cost calculation by the software and representation of the digital equivalent cost of this share for each Share Investment Fund on the screen or in a creeping line in the form of the share price index computed as the summated products of the securities quantities forming the property of the fund and their estimated prices plus monetary remainders on the commercial and settlement accounts of the corresponding Share Investment Fund, divided by the shares quantity of this fund.
