Figure 6-3 AGA8 Table Data
6.3 Clamp-On Gas Tool
Gas Sensor Selection and Sizing Tool Screen
24
The AGA8 table is comprised of two sections. The top section is a matrix of
compressibility factors relative to temperature (vertical axis) versus pressure
(Horizontal axis) across your specified application range.
The lower section is a matrix of theoretical sound velocity relative to the same range
of temperature and pressure.
The [Gas Sensor Selection and Sizing Tool] screen allows the user to specify units of
measure, pipe dimensional data, and gas type, along with nominal values for flow range,
temperature range and pressure range. These values are used by the sizing tool to
calculate the recommended sensor selection along with the recommended sensor
installation methods.
The tool also provides application calculations for minimum pressure requirements, flow
velocity, Reynolds number, compressibility factor, Std Volume compensation factor,
expected repeatability and will point out if an application conflict exists.
To display the [Gas Sensor Selection and Sizing Tool] screen:
1. In the [Utilities] drop down menu select [Clamp-On Gas Tool].
2. Input your default units of measurement in the row at the top of the screen
3. Select your pipe material from the drop-down menu, then enter your pipe's Outside
diameter and Wall thickness as accurately as possible.
4. Select a gas type from the [Gas Properties] drop down menu. Enter the Min / Max flow
range for your application (be careful to use the units of measure and multiplier shown),
Lastly enter the Min / Max temperature and pressure
