Conversions on units are the same for both gases. CO is taking as an example.

With:
• O
2ref
a reference value selected by the user, this value has to be entered in the device in %.
• O
2
oxygen value measured in %.
• V
F
the theoretical volume of flue gas in m
3
(given in the table of coefficient)
• NCV the net calorific value in MJ (given in the table of coefficient)
• CO
2max
the maximum level in % in carbon dioxide of flue gas dry products (given in the table of coefficient)
22.2. Calculation of the level in NOx
with NO the level in nitrogen monoxide in ppm.
0.97 if the %NO
2
is at 3% in the “Setting” menu.
0.95 if the %NO
2
is at 5% in the “Setting” menu.
So for the measurement of the NO and NO

22.3. Calculation of flue gas velocity
With:
• k: coefficient of the differential pressure item
• ΔP: differential pressure (dynamic pressure).
• M
VF
: mass density of the flue gas (already calculated for the calculation of the higher efficiency).
