INTRODUCTION
FE-ISO20765-2 is a program for MS Windows.
FE-ISO20765-2 calculates the properties of a natural gas mixture in accordance with:
  • ISO-20765-2:2015: Natural gas - Calculation of thermodynamic properties -
    Part 2: Single-phase properties (gas, liquid, and dense fluid) for extended ranges of application
  • 2. ISO-14912:2003: Gas analysis - Conversion of gas mixture composition data
INSTALLATION

RANGES OF APPLICATION
The following are the ranges of application (RAP) for input parameters:

Parameter Ranges
Range of application (RAP) R1 R2 R3
Absolute Pressure in MPa >0 to 35 >0 to 70 >0 to 70
Temperature in K 90 to 450 60 to 700 60 to 700
Mole fractions:
Methane 0.7 to 1 0.3 to 1 0 to 1
Nitrogen 0 to 0.2 0 to 0.55 0 to 1
Carbon dioxide 0 to 0.2 0 to 0.3 0 to 1
Ethane 0 to 0.1 0 to 0.25 0 to 1
Propane 0 to 0.035 0 to 0.14 0 to 1
n-Butane+Isobutane 0 to 0.015 0 to 0.06 0 to 1
n-Pentane+Isopentane 0 to 0.005 0 to 0.005 0 to 1
n-Hexane 0 to 0.001 0 to 0.002 0 to 1
n-Heptane 0 to 0.0005 0 to 0.001 0 to 1
n-Octane+n-Nonane+n-Decane 0 to 0.0005 0 to 0.0005 0 to 1
Hydrogen 0 to 0.1 0 to 0.40 0 to 1
Oxigen 0 to 0.0002 0 to 0.02 0 to 1
Carbon Monoxide 0 to 0.03 0 to 0.13 0 to 1
Water 0 to 0.00015 0 to 0.0002 0 to 1
Hydrogen Sulfide 0 to 0.0002 0 to 0.27 0 to 1
Helium 0 to 0.005 0 to 0.005 0 to 1
Argon 0 to 0.0002 0 to 0.0005 0 to 1

The ranges of applications defined by R1 and R2 are completely in accordance with ISO-20765-2:2015.
Mole fraction ranges defined by R3 are not in accordance with ISO-20765-2:2015. It can be used only for software testing purposes, like the examples given in Annex G of ISO-20765-2:2015, which do not satisfy the mole fraction ranges defined by R1 or R2.

In FE-ISO20765-2 a gas mixture analysis may be given in form of:
- Mole fractions
- Mass fractions
- Volume fractions at 100 kPa, 288.15 K
Note that mass or volume fractions may differ significantly from mole
fractions for the same gas mixture.
A sum of fractions of gas components must be between 0.99999 and 1.00001. If mass- or volume-fractions are given they will be internally converted to mole fractions during program execution, according to ISO-14912:2003, which then must satisfy the above mole fractions ranges.
We recommend the use of mole-, rather than mass- or volume-fractions, as the ISO-20765-2:2015 calculation procedures are based on mole-fractions exclusively.
METHODS OF CALCULATION
The following calculation methods are implemented in FE_ISO20765_2:
A) Calculation based on: P, T and gas components fractions
B) Calculation based on: density, T and gas components fractions
C) Calculation based on: reduced density, T and gas components fractions

Regardless of the selected calculation method A), B) or C), the following input variables to FE-ISO20765-2 are common to all calculation methods:
  • Temperature [K]
  • Fractions of natural gas components
The results, common to all calculation methods, are:
  • Error status
  • Molar mass [kg/kmol]
  • Molar density [kmol/m3]
  • Compression []
  • Molar Gibbs free energy [kJ/kmol]
  • Molar internal energy [kJ/kmol]
  • Specific internal energy [kJ/kg]
  • Molar enthalpy [kJ/kmol]
  • Specific enthalpy [kJ/kg]
  • Molar entropy [kJ/(kmol⋅K)]
  • Specific entropy [kJ/(kg⋅K)]
  • Molar isochoric heat capacity [kJ/(kmol⋅K)]
  • Specific isochoric heat capacity [kJ/(kg⋅K)]
  • Molar isobaric heat capacity [kJ/(kmol⋅K)]
  • Specific isobaric heat capacity [kJ/(kg⋅K)]
  • Joule-Thomson coefficient [K/MPa]
  • Isentropic exponent []
  • Speed of sound [m/s]
Depending on the calculation method the following parameters could be input variables or results
  • Absolute pressure [MPa]
  • Density [kg/m3]
  • Reduced density []
In case of calculation method A), absolute pressure is the input variable while the density and reduced density are the results. In case of calculation method B), the density is the input variable while absolute pressure and reduced density are the results. In case of calculation method C), the reduced density is the input variable while absolute pressure and density are the results.

Before starting the calculation choose the corresponding calculation method, the ranges of application, the type of gas mixture analysis, and enter the input variables.
