27、 6974-2:2012 (E) DIN EN ISO 6974-2:2012-11 3 IntroductionISO 6974 describes methods of analysis of natural gas and methods for calculating component mole fractions and uncertainties. ISO 6974 (all parts) is intended for the measurement of H2, He, O2, N2, CO2and hydrocarbons, either as individual com
28、ponents or as a group, for example all hydrocarbons above C5, defined as C6+. This approach is suitable for a range of end applications, including calibrating gas mixtures and providing natural gas composition and uncertainty data to be used in the calculation of calorific value and other additive p
29、hysical properties of the gas. Details of these end applications are provided in ISO 6974-3 and subsequent parts of ISO 6974.ISO 6974-1 gives guidelines for calculating the mole composition of natural gas, determined using one of the gas chromatographic methods described in ISO 6974-3 and subsequent
30、 parts of ISO 6974. ISO 6974-1 also describes all the essential steps for setting up an analysis, including outlining the structure of the analysis, defining the working ranges and establishing the analytical procedure. This part of ISO 6974 describes the steps required to calculate the uncertainty
31、of the component mole fractions of natural gas determined using gas chromatography.ISO 6974-3 and subsequent parts of ISO 6974 describe different gas chromatographic methods. These methods cover both daily practice in the laboratory and on-line field applications. ISO 6974-1:2012, Annex A, provides
32、a comparison of the characteristics of the analytical methods described in ISO 6974-3 and subsequent parts of ISO 6974.It is intended that this part of ISO 6974 be used in conjunction with ISO 6974-1 and a method of analysis, e.g. ISO 6974-3 or subsequent parts of ISO 6974.ISO 6974-1:2012, 5.5, desc
33、ribes the conventional normalization approach for calculating processed mole fractions from raw mole fractions. When conventional normalization is used for multiple operation methods without bridging, the uncertainties of the calculated mole fractions will be conservative. If a more accurate assessm
34、ent of uncertainty is required, an alternative approach to normalization, using the generalized least squares (GLS) method, can be used; this is described in ISO 6974-1:2012, Annex B. Further alternative approaches are available for calculating processed mole fractions, including methane-by-differen
