2.8.1 Calculations
Lag time calculation qualifying factors:
• The sample for calculation contains mostly methane gas that flows
through 100 feet of ¼-inch stainless steel tubing with a wall thickness of
0.020-inch. Sample temperature is 80 °F (26.7 °C) and pressure is 15 psig
(29.7 psia). Bypass rotameter in the sample conditioning system reads
50% of full scale and is calibrated with air to 1180 cc/min at full scale. Air
density is 0.075 lbs/cu.ft.
• To compute transport tubing lag time, perform the calculation below.
