Abstract

Measurements errors due to sound velocity effect on vibrating gas densimeters were described. Nitrogen was used to calibrate the densimeter, and oxygen was employed to determine a coefficient for the compensation of sound velocity effect. Sound velocity effects were shown with methane at temperatures of 7.97, 19.93 and 39.57 .deg. C, and pressures up to 3.6 Mpa. A relative error of about 1% was introduced when the nitrogen calibrated densimeter was used to measure densities of pure methane. A method of sound velocity effect compensation was able to reduce the error down to 0.1%.
