Description

In traditional measurement systems, such as a test device and test method for trunk gas emissions disclosed in patent document CN202310646972.7, it is necessary to paste the gas chamber on the tree trunk surface and then use putty for sealing; for another example, in a static chamber for measuring the methane transmission rate of mangrove tree trunks disclosed in patent document CN201610635738.4, it is necessary to first fix the gas chamber with cable ties and then seal it with the tree trunk through sealing strips and silicone foam sealing strips.
