27、4-10EN ISO 6974-5:2014 (E)IntroductionThis part of ISO 6974 describes a method for the analysis of natural gas that is commonly used for online process applications, but can be applied to laboratory instruments. The compositional data obtained are used for the calculation of calorific value, density

28、 and Wobbe index.It is assumed that the natural gas does not contain any oxygen at source and that any oxygen which may be present is due to contamination during sampling.The primary use of this chromatographic method is the calculation of calorific value (CV) according to ISO 6976. It is based on a

29、 column switching technique in which multiple columns, chosen for their separating ability for particular groups of components, are switched under automatic control.Only one injection is necessary and the first phase of the method involves accelerated backflush of C6+ (which is measured as a recombi

30、ned “pseudo component” rather than by the summation of individual component measurements). Lighter components (nitrogen, methane, carbon dioxide and ethane) are stored on the appropriate separating column while the heavier, C3to C5hydrocarbons are eluted. The lighter components are then separated by

31、 redirecting carrier gas on to the appropriate column.A Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD) is used for measurement of the above components.When the method is first set up, the repeatability of measurement is established by repetitive analysis of a cylinder of test gas, commonly a typical natural ga

32、s. For each component, a control chart showing the mean value, and the bounds representing 2 and 3 standard deviations, is drawn up. Subsequently, this test gas is analysed after each calibration of the analyser, and the results are compared with the data in the control charts. The performance of th

33、e analyser is assessed by this procedure.Any change in the method setup can give rise to differences in component responses and hence (where applied) to calculated uncertainties. In these circumstances fitting data to an existing control chart is not a suitable procedure, and the operations that wer

34、e undertaken when the method was first set up shall be repeated.This part of ISO 6974 provides one of the methods that may be used for determining the compositions of natural gas in accordance with ISO 6974-1 and ISO 6974-2.4DIN EN ISO 6974-5:2014-10 EN ISO 6974-5:2014 (E) 1 ScopeThis part of this I

35、nternational Standard describes a gas chromatographic method for the quantitative determination of the content of nitrogen, carbon dioxide and C1to C5hydrocarbons individually and a composite C6+ measurement, which represents all hydrocarbons of carbon number 6 and above in natural gas samples.

However, there is no reason why wider rang

38、es should not be used, provided that the successful measurement of such wider ranges has been demonstrated.NOTE 2 Hydrocarbons above n-pentane are expressed as the “pseudo-component” C6+ which is measured as one composite peak and calibrated as such. The properties of C6+ are calculated from an exte

39、nded analysis of the individual C6and higher hydrocarbons.NOTE 3 Oxygen is not a normal constituent of natural gas and would not be expected to be present in gas sampled to an online instrument. If any oxygen is present as a result of air contamination, it will be measured with the nitrogen. The res

40、ulting measured (nitrogen + oxygen) value will be in error to a small extent because of the slight difference between the detector responses of oxygen and nitrogen.NOTE 4 The helium and argon contents are assumed to be sufficiently small and unvarying that they need not be analysed for.NOTE 5 The ga

41、s sample shall not contain any hydrocarbon condensate and/or water.5DIN EN ISO 6974-5:2014-10EN ISO 6974-5:2014 (E)2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

Indirect components are not used in this part of ISO 6974, so step 5 is not used.The chromatographic method uses a column switching/backfl

46、ush arrangement, configured as shown in Figure 2. The sample is injected onto a boiling-point column which is divided into short and long sections (columns 1 and 2). The long section (column 2) provides separation of C3to C5hydrocarbons, while C6and heavier hydrocarbons are retained on the short sec

A six-port valve either connects this column or by-passes it during measurement of C3to C5components.The separations that occur in

49、the columns are as follows:Column 1 Retains C6+ components ready for backflushing as one composite peak.Column 2 Separates Propane, iso-Butane, n-Butane, neo-Pentane, iso-Pentane and n-Pentane, (which elute after C6+ has left column 1).Column 3 Stores and separates Nitrogen, Methane, Carbon Dioxide and Ethane which elute after n-Pentane has left column 2.4 Materials4.1 Carrier gas, Helium (He), 99,995 % pure, free from oxygen and water.4.2 Auxiliary gases, compressed air, for valve actuation (If consumption is l
