  • Analytical Experts Blog: Gas Chromatograph Webinar Series: How to Calibrate a GC Correctly

    by Khadra Helminski, Global Integrated Marketing Manager, Rosemount Gas Analysis, Emerson Automation Solutions All chromatograph systems provide a comparative measurement where the analysis is a comparison to a known “standard” and the “standard” is the calibration gas. The calibration gas system is critical to the accuracy of the analysis as the gas chromatograph is only as accurate as the calibration gas. We’d like…
  • Analytical Experts Blog: Meeting Bureau of Land Management’s Natural Gas Requirements While Saving Time and Money

    By Jamie Marsden, Business Development Manager, Gas Chromatographs, Emerson Automation Solutions Are you faced with the challenge of meeting the measurement accuracy requirements of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM)? And do you have a plan of how you could ensure compliance while staying focused on production rather than gathering samples? Gas producers must comply with the BLM 43 CFR 3175 regulations, which establish…

  • Flow Blog: Multipoint Piecewise Linearization for Coriolis Flow Meters

    Yesterday, we looked at calibration of Coriolis mass flow meters in natural gas applications and mentioned piecewise linearization (PWL), but did not delve into it. Let’s do with today’s post. I found a presentation by Emerson’s Tonya Wyatt , Fine Tuning Coriolis Flow Meter Calibrations Utilizing Piece-Wise Linearization . The PWL calibration method basically looks at the flow rate at points over its operating range…

  • Temperature Blog: Reducing Thermowell Dynamic Stress Forces

    Thermowells are traditionally a circular cylinder installed into the piping to protect the temperature sensors from the flow. From an Emerson whitepaper, Thermowell Calculations : As a process fluid passes around the thermowell, low pressure vortices are created on the downstream side in laminar, turbulent, and transitional flow. The combination of stresses, generated by the static in-line drag forces from fluid…
