Title: A CONTINUOUS BOILING POINT ANALYZER AND ITS APPLICATION TO THE HYDROGEN FLUORIDE-WATER SYSTEM

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4175308· OSTI ID:4175308

A simple and inexpensive instrument is described which provides a continuously recorded analysis of binary liquid or vapor mixtures by measurement of the boiling point. The instrnment is insensitive to flow rate within broad limits. The response lag is less than one minute. The instrument may be applied to a sample loop of a liquid or vapur process stream, returning the sample to that process stream. This instrument has been applied to the corrosive hydrogen fluoride-water system. Precisions of plus or minus 0.5% absolute in the hydrogen fluoride concentration ranges 0 to 30% and 45 to 100% are obtained. (auth)
