3、f an average property value that is representative of a batch of petroleumproduct collected and isolated in a tank or vessel has always been a challenge. Historically, theindustry practice has been to follow the appropriate procedures prescribed in Practices D 4057,D 5842,orD 4177 to extract one sam

4、ple (or a limited few, taken from top, middle, and bottom) fromthe tank or vessel after the content is mixed by any of several means to ensure the material ishomogeneous prior to sample extraction. The extracted sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis.Depending on the property and its criti

5、cality, the average property value can also be obtained byindependently analyzing each of the top, middle, and bottom samples and the results averaged, or, thethree tank samples are mixed and testing for the property is performed on the mixture.With the introduction of in-line blending and process s

6、tream analysis in the 1960s, the potential forreal-time delivery to a pipeline, barge, ship, or tank car compartment was envisioned.To determine the average property value that is representative of a batch of product from a blendor process stream, two approaches have been developed and implemented.

7、One depends on the use ofa composite sampler, a vessel into which a sample of the flowing process or blended product streamis introduced at a flow-rate proportional to the flow-rate of the product stream (Practice D 4177). Thissample, collected over the period of time required to generate the batch

8、quantity of product, is thenanalyzed using a primary test method in the laboratory. Multiple laboratory analyses on one or morealiquots of composite sample can be averaged to provide a more precise estimate of the property valuethan a single analysis.A second technique utilizes the results produced

9、by on-line, at-line, or in-line analyticalmeasurement systems that continually test material from the process or in-line blended stream for thedesired property as it flows to a collection tank, pipeline, or shipping compartment. To determine theaverage property value of all the material collected (o

10、r shipped) at any time during the productionprocess, a unique real time flow-proportioned averaging technique evolved. By appropriate selectionof a production time period or cycle, the average property value for the collected (or shipped) materialat any time in the production or shipment cycle is ob

11、tained by recursively calculating a flow-proportion average using all available property values from the analytical measurement system and themeasured incremental quantity of product flow associated with each cycle. The determination of thisflow-proportioned average property value is the subject of

12、this practice.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers a technique for calculating aflow-proportioned average property value (FPAPV) for a batchof in-line blended product or process stream material that iscollected over time and isolated in a storage tank or vessel,using a combination of on-line or at-line

13、measurements of theproperty and flow rates.1.2 The FPAPV methodology uses regularly collected on-line or at-line process analyzer measurements, flow, andassessment of other appropriate process measurements orvalues, to calculate a flow-proportioned average property valuein accordance with flow quant

14、ity units of material produced.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 on PetroleumProducts and Lubricants and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D02.25 onPerformance Assessment and Validation of Process Stream Analyzer Systems forPetroleum and Petroleum Products.Cur

Significance and Use4.1 Contractual or local regulation, or both, permitting, theFPAPV calculated according to this practice can be used torepresent the average property of the quantity of materialcollected.4.2 Due to the averaging and appropriate weighting ofanalysi

27、s results, the FPAPV estimate of the property for thecollected material is expected to be more representative andmore precise than an estimate based on a small number ofanalyses on a few samples.NOTE 1Theoretically speaking, the true property distribution for aninfinite number of batches with essent

28、ially identical FPAPVs is expectedto be Gaussian, centered at the FPAPV value, with a standard deviationthat is no less than the long term site precision standard deviation of theanalyzer system.4.3 If the measured property value can be used to predictanother property value through the use of an app

29、ropriatecorrelation equation, the FPAPV can also be used as a suitableprediction of that property.4.4 The most recently updated FPAPV can be used torepresent the property of the material currently accumulated inthe tank or vessel for process control or material dispositiondecisions, or both.5.

Factors to be addressed shall include, but not belimited to, the following:5.3.1 The sampling system design and operation sh

34、all en-sure a sample representative of the process stream is deliveredto the applicable process stream analyzer.5.3.2 The process stream shall have dynamics such that theanalytical measurement system result used for FPAPV calcu-lation at the end of each analysis cycle time shall be represen-tative o

35、f the property of the material produced during that timeperiod.5.3.3 Analyzer functions shall be in proper condition toproduce accurate property measurement results.5.3.4 During the calculation of FPAPV, inferential or othervalidation strategies shall be in place to ensure the analyticalmeasurement

36、system results are representative of the materialin the process stream. The effectiveness of these strategies shallbe supported by data.NOTE 2Examples of these strategies can include, but are not limitedto, the following: monitoring of appropriate system parameters to ensureeach sample is representa

39、 appropriate requirements and criteria of Practice D 3764and the techniques of Practice D 6299.NOTE 3It is recommended that a statistician be consulted to ensurethe proper application of Practices D 6299 and D 3764.5.5 The final FPAPV shall be calculated based on fit-for-usedata obtained from at lea

40、st 90 % of the material collected.5.5.1 For the balance of the volume (up to 10%) that has nofit-for-use analyzer data, for the purpose of calculating FPAPV,an estimate based on knowledge of the manufacturing process,or another equivalent measurement, or both, shall be used. Themaximum error associa

41、ted with this estimate that is deemedacceptable by this practice shall be no more than 2.5% of thetrue property value.5.5.2 For measurement systems that are operated in batchmode in synchronization with the manufacturing process, thequality of the initial unmeasured volume can be estimated byapplyin

45、 In this case,the difference between test results from aliquots of material thatare obtained and analyzed with the measurement process (testmethod) that the FPAPV is intended to represent versus theactual calculated FPAPVs are assessed. This validation shall besubsequently carried out as part of a s

Use the heel propertyvalue, and the heel qua

49、ntity as the starting values for FPAPVcalculation to ensure the final FPAPV value includes thecontribution from the heel material.6.1.2 For each analysis cycle, multiply the analyzer propertyvalue result times the quantity of process stream flowing duringthat cycle to determine the property 3 flow quantity value ofthe latest cycle.6.1.3 Sum the property 3 flow quantity values for all cyclescompleted through the last cycle,6.1.4 Sum the flow quantities for all cycles completedthrough the last cycle.6.1.5 Divide the sum of the property 3 flow quantity valuesby the sum
