9、IDS AND VAPORS TO EQUIVALENT LIQUID VOLUMES 14.4.1 Scope This standard prescribes a method for converting the measured mass of natural gas liquids or natural gas vapors at operating conditions to equivalent liquid volumes of the components at 60F and equilibrium pressure for English units, or 15C an

12、86 GPSA Engineering Data Book (“Physical Properties” Chapter) 14.4.3 Outline of Method 14.4.3.1 Mass is calculated by multiplying consistent units of a measured volume by its absolute density, with both volume and absolute density determined at the same flowing conditions. The resulting total mass i

13、s converted to individual component volumes using a component analysis and proper values of the absolute density in mass per unit volume of each component at 60F (or 15C) and its equilibrium pressure. 14.4.3.2 Volume and absolute density determination, sampling, and analysis shall be performed as de

Unless contract terms specify otherwise, absolute density values shall be from the latest revision of GPA Standard 2145. In the examples in this publication, the absolute density values stafed in GPA Stan- dard 2145-86

16、were used. Note 1: The examples in this publication illustrate typical components. In actual practice, all the detected components that are representative of the measured product stream should be included in the conversion to equivalent liquid volumes. Note 2 if constants for hydrocarbon components

17、that are not presented in GPA Standard 2145 are required, the constants contained in the “Physical Properties”chapter of the GPSA Engineering DaraBookshal be used. If the required constants are not contained in the GPSA Engineering Data Book either, the API Technical Data Book constants shall be use

18、d. 14.4.4 Precautions Equipment, installation, an operations shall be in accord- ance with Chapter 14.7 (GPA Standard 8182); however, the following information is reiterated: a. Accurate dynamic measurement can be accomplished only with a single phase, homogeneous, Newtonian fluid. b. To calculate m

19、ass accurately, density determination must be made at essentially the same pressure and temperature as the volume measurement, Allowable temperature and pres- sure deviations are set in Chapter 14.6. Density may either be measured directly or calculated in accordance with Chapter 14.7 (GPA Standard

20、8182). c. Dynamic measurement in the vapor phase must occur at a pressure below the equilibrium pressure (dew point pressure) of the mixture at operating conditions. d. Dynamic measurement in the liquid phase must occur at zt pressure above the equilibrium pressure (bubble point pres- sure) of the m

21、ixture at all actual operating temperatures and compositions. This standard may also be applied to the meas- urement of supercritical fluids. e. Measuring and sampling equipment shal be located where it will not be affected by pulsation; mechanical vibra- tion; and compressor-, pump-, or control-val

22、ve-generated noise that would adversely affect measurement accuracy. 1 2 API MPMS*l4-4 9% 0732270 0095843 2 CHAPTER 14-NATURAL GAS FLUIDS MEASUREMENT 14.4.5 Calculations for Liquid and Vapor Conversion (English Units) Step l-Convert mol percent analysis to weight fraction: Given: Compositional analy
