(g) This paragraph (g) describes how to correct flow and flow rates to standard reference conditions and provides an example for determining Vmix based on CVS total flow and the removal of sample flow from the dilute exhaust gas. You may use predetermined nominal values for removed sample volumes, except for flows used for batch sampling.
(1) Correct flow and flow rates to standard reference conditions as needed using the following equation:
Where:
V[flow]std = total flow volume at the flow meter, corrected to standard reference conditions.
V[flow]act = total flow volume at the flow meter at test conditions.
pin = absolute static pressure at the flow meter inlet, measured directly or calculated as the sum of atmospheric pressure plus a differential pressure referenced to atmospheric pressure.
Tstd = standard temperature.
pstd = standard pressure.
Tin = temperature of the dilute exhaust sample at the flow meter inlet.
VPMact = 1.071 m3
pin = 101.7 kPa
Tstd = 293.15 K
pstd = 101.325 kPa
Tin = 340.5 K
(2) The following example provides a determination of Vmix based on CVS total flow and the removal of sample flow from one dilute exhaust gas analyzer and one PM sampling system that is utilizing secondary dilution. Note that your Vmix determination may vary from Eq. 1066.605-7 based on the number of flows that are removed from your dilute exhaust gas and whether your PM sampling system is using secondary dilution. For this example, Vmix is governed by the following equation:
Where:
VCVSstd = total dilute exhaust volume over the test interval at the flow meter, corrected to standard reference conditions.
Vgasstd = total volume of sample flow through the gaseous emission bench over the test interval, corrected to standard reference conditions.
VPMstd = total volume of dilute exhaust sampled through the filter over the test interval, corrected to standard reference conditions.
Vsdastd = total volume of secondary dilution air flow sampled through the filter over the test interval, corrected to standard reference conditions.
Using Eq. 1066.605-8:
VCVSstd = 170.451 m3, where VCVSact = 170.721 m3, pin = 101.7 kPa, and Tin = 294.7 K
Using Eq. 1066.605-8:
Vgasstd = 0.028 m3, where Vgasact = 0.033 m3, pin = 101.7 kPa, and Tin = 340.5 K
Using Eq. 1066.605-8:
VPMstd = 0.925 m3, where VPMact = 1.071 m3, pin = 101.7 kPa, and Tin = 340.5 K
Using Eq. 1066.605-8:
Vsdastd = 0.527 m3, where Vsdaact = 0.531 m3, pin = 101.7 kPa, and Tin = 296.3 K
Vmix = 170.451 + 0.028 + 0.925 − 0.527 = 170.878 m3
(h) Calculate total flow volume over a test interval, V[flow], for a CVS or exhaust gas sampler as follows:
(1) Varying versus constant flow rates. The calculation methods depend on differentiating varying and constant flow, as follows:
(i) We consider the following to be examples of varying flows that require a continuous multiplication of concentration times flow rate: raw exhaust, exhaust diluted with a constant flow rate of dilution air, and CVS dilution with a CVS flow meter that does not have an upstream heat exchanger or electronic flow control.
(ii) We consider the following to be examples of constant exhaust flows: CVS diluted exhaust with a CVS flow meter that has an upstream heat exchanger, an electronic flow control, or both.
(2) Continuous sampling. For continuous sampling, you must frequently record a continuously updated flow signal. This recording requirement applies for both varying and constant flow rates.
(i) Varying flow rate. If you continuously sample from a varying exhaust flow rate, calculate V[flow] using the following equation:
Where:
N = 505
Q̇CVS1 = 0.276 m3/s
Q̇CVS2 = 0.294 m3/s
frecord = 1 Hz
Using Eq. 1066.605-11,
Δt = 1/1 = 1 s
VCVS = (0.276 + 0.294 + ... + Q̇CVS505)·1
VCVS = 170.721 m3
(ii) Constant flow rate. If you continuously sample from a constant exhaust flow rate, use the same calculation described in paragraph (h)(2)(i) of this section or calculate the mean flow recorded over the test interval and treat the mean as a batch sample, as described in paragraph (h)(3)(ii) of this section.
(3) Batch sampling. For batch sampling, calculate total flow by integrating a varying flow rate or by determining the mean of a constant flow rate, as follows:
(i) Varying flow rate. If you proportionally collect a batch sample from a varying exhaust flow rate, integrate the flow rate over the test interval to determine the total flow from which you extracted the proportional sample, as described in paragraph (h)(2)(i) of this section.
(ii) Constant flow rate. If you batch sample from a constant exhaust flow rate, extract a sample at a proportional or constant flow rate and calculate V[flow] from the flow from which you extract the sample by multiplying the mean flow rate by the time of the test interval using the following equation:
Q̇̅CVS = 0.338 m3/s
Δt = 505 s
VCVS = 0.338·505
VCVS = 170.69 m3
