515-GN11 – (SGERG) Quadrature Input, Natural Gas (AGA-8)

Natural Gas Flow Computer (SGERG) – Quadrature Input

The 515-GN11 application measures the volume, mass and gross heat content of a natural gas. The instrument uses a frequency volume flow input and analog temperature and pressure sensor inputs.

The instrument is compatible with a wide range of flowmeter frequency outputs. Millivolt signals, reed switches, Namur proximity switches or pulse trains can be selected via its smart front-panel programming.

The SGERG calculation (AGA-8 Detail Characterization Method) is used to obtain accurate values of density and compressibility factors for the flow calculations.

Calculations

The gas density and compressibility factor calculations are based on the SGERG (AGA-8 Gross) equations. The calculations are valid for the region:
• -8.0°C < t < 62.0°C P < 12MPa
• 17°F < t < 143.0°F P < 1740psia

Formulas:
• Mflow = volume flow• ρflow
• corrected flow = Mflow/ρ ref
• Heat flow = Mflow•Hm

Where:
• Mflow = mass flow
• ρflow = density at flow conditions
• ρ ref = density at reference conditions
• Hm = mass gross heating value
