Calculations 

Lag time calculation qualifying factors: 

•

 

The sample for calculation contains mostly methane gas that flows 
through 100 feet of ¼-inch stainless steel tubing with a wall thickness of 
0.020-inch. Sample temperature is 80 

°

F (26.7 

°

C) and pressure is 15 psig 

(29.7 psia). Bypass rotameter in the sample conditioning system reads 
50% of full scale and is calibrated with air to 1180 cc/min at full scale. Air 
density is 0.075 lbs/cu.ft. 

•

 

To compute transport tubing lag time, perform the calculation below.
