To be of real value, this documen

The De

7、partment is further aware of the benefits to USA users of ISA standards of incorporating suitable references to the SI (and the metric system) in their business and professional dealings with other countries. Toward this end, this Department will endeavor to introduce SI-acceptable metric units in a

The primary modes of leakage that can resul

10、t from these factors are molecular, transitional, and viscous (both laminar and turbulent).C.2 Molecular leakageMolecular leakage results when the mean free path of both gases being correlated is greater than the cross-sectional dimension of the leak orifice. The mean free path is defined as the dis

11、tance a molecule travels between successive collisions with other molecules in the vapor state. When this type of leakage is encountered, the measured leakage (concentration in ppm) of any gas can be correlated to methane leakage per the following formula:ML= (LT) (MWT)1/2/ (MWM)1/2ML= Methane equiv

13、ansitional leakage results when the mean free path of both gases being correlated is approximately equal to the cross sectional dimension of the leak orifice. When this type of leakage is encountered, the measured leakage (concentration in ppm) of any gas can be correlated to methane leakage per the

14、 following formula:Methane equivalent leakage, ppm = ( Measured leakage of test gas, ppm ) x ( Molecular weight of test gas, atomic mass units ) x ( Absolute temperature, Kelvin ) 1/2 ( Molecular weight of methane, atomic mass units ) x ( Absolute temperature, Kelvin ) 1/2ANSI/ISAS93.00.011999 24 NO

15、TE Transitional leakage occurs under conditions intermediate between molecular and viscous (laminar) flow. This transition between molecular and laminar leakage is gradual.C.4 Viscous leakageViscous leakage, both laminar and turbulent, results when the mean free path of both gases being correlated i

16、s smaller than the cross sectional dimension of the leak orifice. As the velocity of the gas flow increases, the leakage will go from laminar to turbulent. In laminar flow, particles follow a nearly straight path, while in turbulent flow, the path is more erratic. Provided the flow of both gases bei

17、ng correlated is either laminar or turbulent, the measured leakage (concentration in ppm) of any gas can be correlated to methane leakage per the following formula: Methane equivalent leakage, ppm = (Measured leakage of test gas, ppm) x (Viscosity of test gas)(Viscosity of methane)NOTE Viscous leaka

This is not t

19、o say that they cannot be used to correlate gases of significantly different molecular size and viscosity; however, the range of equation applicability must be established experimentally since it is possible for one of the gases being correlated to be governed by one leakage mode while the other gas

20、 is governed by another leakage mode.ISBN 1-55617-712-7Developing and promulgating technically sound consensus standards, recommended practices, and technical reports is one of ISAs primary goals. To achieve this goal, the Standards and Practices Department relies on the technical expertise and effo
