Calorific Values and Properties of Natural Gas per ISO 6976:2016

Calculates calorific values (gross and net), density, relative density, and Wobbe indices together with their standard uncertainties from natural gas composition, implementing the method of ISO 6976:2016 "Natural Gas — Calculation of calorific values, density, relative density and Wobbe indices from composition". Uncertainty propagation follows Annex B of that standard. Reference: International Organization for Standardization (2016) < https://www.iso.org/standard/55842.html>.

ISO6976.2016

R implementation of ISO 6976:2016 — "Natural Gas — Calculation of calorific values, density, relative density and Wobbe indices from composition".

ISO 6976:2016 defines the method for deriving the thermodynamic and combustion properties of a natural gas mixture from its molar composition, together with the propagation of measurement uncertainties. It is the reference standard for custody transfer, billing, and energy measurement in the natural gas industry.
