AGA8 Gross Setup
Accessed from the AGA8 Gross widget, this display shows the values of the 4 gas components and other
setup parameters. You can edit the local values here.
Item Description
Active Gas Component
Values
Local values: Uses Local Values of gas components.
Remote values: Uses the block’s Remote Values (input pin values from an online
analyzer).
Override Range Error Under certain situations, the gas component values may exceed the expanded range
recommended by the AGA 8 Report. In Override mode a flow rate will be calculated. It
should be noted that calculated flow rates for conditions where the expanded range is
exceeded are outside of the recommended uncertainty values for AGA 8 calculations.
Gross Method Used Method 1 calculates the super-compressibility and gas density from knowledge of the
relative density, heating value and carbon dioxide, hydrogen and carbon monoxide
components.
Method 2 calculates the super-compressibility and gas density from knowledge of the
relative density, Nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen and carbon monoxide
components.
