This is really a very simple matter.
Trying to access all the variables is a very complex task, so just set your pool heater to maintain a constant temperature, and record your natural gas consumption daily, along with the other relevant parameters (water temperature, air temperature and relative humidity).
You will then have a complete chart of heat loss relative to water temp, air temp and relative humidity. Make a note of average winds in the area also as this can affect heat loss as well.
Comments welcome, I am in the process of building a complete, integrated solar system for my home (pool heat, house heat and hot water, and airconditioning)

What is the term that describes the loss of water in a swimming pool after an earthquake?
leak
How can you measure heat losses in the swimming pool by exact formulation?
First of all, you need to measure and calculate the volume of water in your pool, average daily temperature of the water, and also the surface area. Once you have accurate data, the heat loss is a simple calculation.
How would a cold swimming pool could have more heat energy than a hot saucepan?
Because there is more particles in the swimming pool than the hot sauce pan so there is more heat energy.
Does temperature affect chlorine in a swimming pool?
the higher the temp the quicker the chlorine loss
Can you heat swimming pool with black hose?
