AGA-8 Gas Component Ranges
The AGA-8 Gas Composition Properties section allows you to enter the range of the fractional values of the components where they cannot be predetermined. The gas components shown below are in Mole Fractions (you can multiply the values by 100 to convert to percentages). Two ranges are shown for each gas component. The Realflo driver accepts any value in the Expanded Range, however, the calculation may not produce a result, or accuracy may be reduced if the values are outside the Normal Range.
