Scope
This part of GB/T27894 gives the uncertainty assessment process for the mole fraction of each component in natural gas analysis. This section is used in conjunction with GB/T 27894.1.
Introduction

Analysis of the core content of the standard

Technical elements Type I analysis mode Type II analysis mode
Sources of uncertainty Certified gas reference materials, analysis process, data fitting Random factors + linear response system errors
Calculation formula Equation (1) Multi-parameter joint evaluation Equation (2)(3) Slope correction method
Detector requirements FID uncertainty ≤2%, TCD ≤10% (Appendix B)

Evolution of key technologies

Main improvements compared to the 2011 version:

  • New methane subtraction method (Appendix A): Calculate the uncertainty after subtraction by using equations (A.1)-(A.3)
  • Optimize response factor evaluation: Clarify the normative requirements for FID/TCD relative response factors
  • Introduce GLS algorithm: Generalized least squares method reduces the conservative error of multiple normalization

Implementation recommendations

Key points for laboratory operation

  1. Regular verification of response linearity is required when using gas chromatograph (Clause 5.3.2.4)
  2. For C6+ components, the successive normalization method (Equation 16) is recommended
  3. When calculating the expanded uncertainty, it is recommended that the inclusion factor k be 2 (corresponding to 95% confidence level)

Typical application scenarios

This standard is particularly suitable for:

  • Composition analysis in LNG custody transfer measurement
  • Verification of pipeline natural gas energy metering system
  • Component monitoring in the development of unconventional natural gas
