NBS research on LNG thermophysical properties data and custody transfer measurement methods. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5172220
Developments in LNG thermophysical properties data research at NBS are reviewed and discussed. These include projects on the PVT, thermodynamic, electromagnetic and transport properties of pure LNG components; and on the liquid-vapor equilibrium properties and orthobaric liquid densities of mixtures of LNG components. Developments in LNG custody transfer measurement research are reviewed, with emphasis on accurate methods for determining LNG composition, density, specific heating value, flow rate and ship tank capacity tables for LNG custody transfer. The uncertainties in the determination of the total heating value of large quantities of LNG in tanks and pipelines are discussed.
