- Scope
2.1 The models in this specification can be used to calculate the density of saturated liquid natural gas in the temperature range 90 to 120K. The estimated uncertainty for the density calculations is ±0.18201;%. The restrictions on composition of the liquefied natural gas are:
methane
608201;% or greater
nitrogen
less than 48201;%
n-butane
less than 48201;%
i-butane
less than 48201;%
pentanes
less than 28201;%
It is assumed that hydrocarbons with carbon numbers of six or greater are not present in the LNG solution.
1.1 This specification covers LNG density calculation models2 for use in the calculation or prediction of the densities of saturated LNG mixtures from 90 to 120K to within 0.18201;% of true values given the pressure, temperature, and composition of the mixture.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
