Abstract: BTU determination of a natural gas stream is typically accomplished by chromatographic compositional analysis but in some instances the BTU is measured from the heat produced by burning the delivered sample. In either case the sample delivered to the analyzer must be representative of the flowing gas stream. For this reason, careful consideration is required in the design of the sample extraction, conditioning, and delivery systems. These systems are typically referred to as Sample Conditioning Systems. Because natural gas has wide variables in composition, diluents, and potential contaminants, the methods used for sampling conditioning systems must account for the probability of factors that may influence the analytical results.
