Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Natural gas – Calculation of thermodynamic properties – Part 2: Single-phase properties (gas, liquid, and dense fluid) for extended ranges of application
1 Scope
This part of ISO 20765 specifies a method of calculation for the volumetric and caloric properties of natural gases, manufactured fuel gases, and similar mixtures, at conditions where the mixture may be in either the homogeneous (single-phase) gas state, the homogeneous liquid state, or the homogeneous supercritical (dense-fluid) state.
NOTE Although the primary application of this document is to natural gases, manufactured fuel gases, and similar
mixtures, the method presented is also applicable with high accuracy (i.e., to within experimental uncertainty) to each of the (pure) natural gas components and to numerous binary and multi-component mixtures related to or not related to
natural gas.
For mixtures in the gas phase and for both volumetric properties (compression factor and density) and caloric properties (for example, enthalpy, heat capacity, Joule-Thomson coefficient, and speed of sound), the method is at least equal in accuracy to the method described in Part 1 of this International Standard, over the full
ranges of pressure p, temperature T, and composition to which Part 1 applies. In some regions, the
performance is significantly better; for example, in the temperature range 250 K to 275 K. The method described here maintains an uncertainty of ≤ 0.1% for volumetric properties, and generally within 0.1% in speed of sound. Although the new equation accurately describes all volumetric and caloric properties in the homogeneous gas, liquid, and supercritical regions, and of vapor-liquid equilibrium states, its structure is more complex than that in Part 1.
NOTE All uncertainties in this document are expanded uncertainties given for a 95% confidence level (coverage factor k = 2).
The method described here is also applicable with no increase in uncertainty to wider ranges of temperature, pressure, and composition, for example, to natural gases with lower content of methane (down to 0.30 mole fraction), higher content of nitrogen (up to 0.55 mole fraction), carbon dioxide (up to 0.30 mole fraction), ethane (up to 0.25 mole fraction), and propane (up to 0.14 mole fraction), and to hydrogen-rich natural gases, to which the method of Part 1 is not applicable. The equations can be used for high CO2 mixtures found in carbon dioxide sequestration applications.
The mixture model presented here is valid by design over the entire fluid region. In the liquid and dense-fluid regions the paucity of high quality test data does not in general allow definitive statements of uncertainty for all sorts of multi-component natural gas mixtures. For saturated liquid densities of LNG-type fluids in the temperature range from 100 K to 140 K, the uncertainty is ≤ (0.1 – 0.3)%, which is in agreement with the estimated experimental uncertainty of available test data. The model represents experimental data for compressed liquid densities of various binary mixtures related to LNG to within deviations of ±(0.1 – 0.2)% at pressures up to 40 MPa, which is in agreement with the estimated experimental uncertainty as well. Due to the high accuracy of the equations developed for the binary subsystems, the mixture model can predict the thermodynamic properties for the liquid and dense-fluid regions with the best accuracy presently possible for multi-component natural gas fluids.

4 Thermodynamic basis of the method
4.1 Principle
The method is based on the concept that natural gas or any other type of mixture can be completely characterized in the calculation of its thermodynamic properties by component analysis. Such an analysis, together with the state variables of temperature and density, provides the necessary input data for the calculation of properties. In practice, the state variables available as input data are generally temperature and pressure, and it is thus necessary to first determine the density iteratively using the equations provided here.
The equation presented here expresses the Helmholtz free energy of the mixture as a function of density, temperature, and composition, from which all other thermodynamic properties in the homogeneous (single-phase) gas, liquid, and supercritical (dense-fluid) regions may be obtained in terms of the Helmholtz free

energy and its derivatives with respect to temperature and density.
NOTE The equation selected is also applicable to the calculation of two-phase properties (vapor-liquid equilibria).
However, derivatives in addition to those required for single-phase calculations are needed. The additional derivatives are presented in Part 3 of this International Standard.
The method uses a detailed molar composition analysis in which all components present in amounts exceeding 0.000 05 mole fraction are specified. For a typical natural gas, this might include alkane hydrocarbons up to about C7 or C8 together with nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and helium. Typically, isomers for alkanes above C5 may be lumped together by molecular weight and treated collectively as the normal isomer.
For some fluids, additional components such as C9, C10, water, and hydrogen sulfide may be present and need to be taken into consideration. For manufactured gases, hydrogen and carbon monoxide may also be present in the mixture.
More precisely, the method uses a 21-component analysis in which all of the major and minor components of natural gas are included (see section 6). Any trace component present but not identified as one of the 21 specified components may be assigned appropriately to one of these 21 components (see annex F).
4.2 The fundamental equation based on the Helmholtz free energy
4.2.1 Background
The GERG-2008 equation [1] was published by the Lehrstuhl für Thermodynamik at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum in Germany as a new wide-range equation of state for the volumetric and caloric properties of natural gases and other mixtures. It was originally published in 2004 [2] and later updated in 2008 [1]. The new equation improves upon the performance of the AGA-8 equation [3] for gas phase properties and in addition is applicable to the properties of the liquid phase, to the dense-fluid phase, to the vapor-liquid phase boundary, and to properties for two-phase states. The ranges of temperature, pressure, and composition to which the GERG-2008 equation of state applies are much wider than the AGA-8 equation and cover an extended range of application. The Groupe Européen de Recherches Gazières supported the development of the GERG-2008 equation of state over several years.
The GERG-2008 equation is explicit in the Helmholtz free energy, a formulation that enables all thermodynamic properties to be expressed analytically as functions of the free energy and of its derivatives with respect to the state conditions of temperature and density. There is generally no need for numerical differentiation or integration within any computer program that implements the method.
4.2.2 The Helmholtz free energy
The Helmholtz free energy a of a fluid mixture at a given mixture density , temperature T, and molar
composition xx can be expressed as the sum of ao describing the ideal gas behavior and a
r describing the
residual or real-gas behavior, as follows

where r and r are reducing functions for the mixture density and mixture temperature (see 4.2.7)
depending on the molar composition of the mixture only.
The residual part r of the reduced Helmholtz free energy is given by
),,(),,(),,( rro

In this equation, the first term on the right-hand side ro describes the contribution of the residual parts of the
reduced Helmholtz free energy of the pure substance equations of state, which are multiplied by the mole
fraction of the corresponding substance and linearly combined using the reduced mixture variables and
(see equation (8)). The second term r is the departure function, which is the summation over all binary
specific and generalized departure functions developed for the respective binary mixtures (see equation (10)).

4.2.6 The departure function contribution to the residual part of the reduced Helmholtz free energy
The purpose of the departure function is to further improve the accuracy of the mixture model in the description of thermodynamic properties in addition to fitting the parameters of the reducing functions (see 4.2.7) when sufficiently accurate experimental data are available to characterize the properties of the mixture.

(a) Binary specific departure functions
Binary specific departure functions were developed for the binary mixtures of methane with nitrogen, carbon
dioxide, ethane, propane, and hydrogen, and of nitrogen with carbon dioxide and ethane. For a binary
specific departure function, the adjustable factor Fij in equation (11) equals unity.
(b) Generalized departure functions
A generalized departure function was developed for the binary mixtures of methane with n-butane and
isobutane, of ethane with propane, n-butane, and isobutane, of propane with n-butane and isobutane, and of
n-butane with isobutane. For each mixture in the group of generalized binary mixtures, the parameter Fij is
fitted to the corresponding binary specific data (except for the binary system methane–n-butane, where Fij
equals unity).
(c) No departure functions
For all of the remaining binary mixtures, no departure function was developed, and Fij equals zero, i.e.,
rij( , , xx ) equals zero. For most of these mixtures, however, the parameters of the reducing functions for
density and temperature were fitted to selected experimental data (see 4.2.7 and 6.2).
The values of the coefficients nij,k, the exponents dij,k and tij,k, and the parameters ij,k, ij,k, ij,k, and ij,k for all
binary specific and generalized departure functions considered in the mixture model described here are given
in annex D.3, Table D.4. The non-zero Fij parameters are listed in Table D.5.
NOTE Compared to the reducing functions for density and temperature, the departure function is in general of minor
importance for the residual behavior of the mixture since it only describes an additional small residual deviation to the real
mixture behavior. The development of such a function was, however, necessary to fulfill the high demands on the
accuracy of the mixture model presented here in the description of the thermodynamic properties of natural gases and
other mixtures.
4.2.7 Reducing functions

These functions are based on quadratic mixing rules and are reasonably connected to physically well-founded
mixing rules. The binary parameters v,ij and v,ij in equation (13) and ,ij and ,ij in equation (14) are fitted
to data for binary mixtures. The values of the binary parameters for all binary mixtures are listed in table E.1
of Annex E. The critical parameters c,i and c,i of the pure components are given in Annex C. In equations
(13) and (14), ij=1/ji and ij=ji.
NOTE The binary parameters of equations (13) and (14) were fitted based on the deviations between the behavior of
the real mixture and the one resulting from ideal combining rules for the critical parameters of the pure components. In
those cases where sufficient experimental data are not available, the parameters of equations (13) and (14) are either set
to unity or modified (calculated) in such a manner that the critical parameters of the pure components are combined in a
different way, which proved to be more suitable for certain binary subsystems (see also Annex E.1).

derivatives of and of the reducing functions for density and temperature are required for the calculation of vapor-liquid
equilibrium (VLE) properties as described in Part 3 of this International Standard.
4.3.2 Relations for the calculation of thermodynamic properties in the homogeneous region
The relations between common thermodynamic properties and the reduced Helmholtz free energy and its derivatives are summarized in table 1. The first column of this table defines the thermodynamic properties.
The second column gives their relation to the reduced Helmholtz free energy of the mixture. In equations
(23), (25), (26), (28), (29), and (31), the basic expressions for the properties s, h, cp, w, JT, and have been
additionally transformed, such that values of properties already derived can be used to simplify the subsequent calculations. This approach is useful for applications where several or all of the thermodynamic properties are to be determined.
In equations (22) to (27), the relations for the thermodynamic properties represent the molar quantities (i.e., quantity per mole, lower case symbols). Specific quantities (i.e., quantity per kilogram, represented normally
by upper case symbols) are obtained by dividing the molar variables (e.g., v, u, s, h, g, cv, and cp) by the molar
mass M.
The molar mass M of the mixture is derived from the composition xi and the molar masses Mi of the pure
substances as follows

5 Method of calculation
5.1 Input variables
The method presented in this standard internally uses reduced density, inverse reduced temperature, and
molar composition as the input variables. The actual allowable input variables are either
(a) Molar density, temperature , and molar composition x , or
(b) Absolute pressure p, temperature , and molar composition x .
If the mass-based density D is available as input, then is obtained directly as =D/M, where )(xM is the
molar mass given by equation (18). For given values of the molar density, temperature , and molar
composition x , the reduced mixture variables and can be calculated from equations (3) and (4) using the
reducing functions for density and temperature given by equations (13) and (14).
More often, however, absolute pressure, temperature, and molar composition are available as the input
variables. In consequence, it is usually necessary to first evaluate the reduced density and the inverse
reduced temperature from the available inputs. The conversion from temperature to inverse reduced temperature is given by equation (4). Section 5.2 explains how to obtain the reduced density given pressure and temperature.
The composition in mole fractions is required for the following 21 components: methane, nitrogen, carbon
dioxide, ethane, propane, n-butane, isobutane (2-methylpropane), n-pentane, isopentane (2-methylbutane), n-
hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, n-nonane, n-decane, hydrogen, oxygen, carbon monoxide, water, hydrogen
sulfide, helium, and argon. For natural gases and similar (multi-component) mixtures, the allowable ranges of
mole fraction are defined in 6.3. The sum of all mole fractions shall be unity.
NOTE 1 If the sum of all mole fractions is not unity within the limit of analytical resolution, then the composition is either faulty or incomplete. The user should not proceed until the source of this problem has been identified and eliminated.
NOTE 2 If the mole fractions of heptanes, octanes, nonanes, and decanes are unknown, then the use of a composite C6+ fraction may be acceptable. For VLE calculations (including dew points), this simplification is not acceptable since
even small amounts of heptanes, octanes, nonanes, decanes, and higher hydrocarbons have a significant influence on the phase behavior of the mixture. The user should carry out a sensitivity analysis in order to test whether a particular
approximation of this type degrades the result.
NOTE 3 Composition given in volume or mass fractions will need to be converted to mole fractions using the method
given in ISO 14912 [8].
5.2 Conversion from pressure to reduced density

If the input variables are available as pressure, inverse reduced temperature, and molar composition, equation
(34) may be solved for the reduced molar density . The derivatives of ori( , ) with respect toand the
ISO/CD 20765-2

coefficients noi,k and the exponents doi,k, toi,k, and coi,k involved (see equation (9)) are given in Annex D.2. The
derivatives of ),(r ij with respect to and the coefficients nij,k, the exponents dij,k and tij,k, and the
parameters Fij, ij,k, ij,k, ij,k, and ij,k involved (see equations (11) and (12)) are given in Annex D.3. Information on the reducing functions is given in annex E.
The solution of equation (34) may be obtained by any suitable numerical method but, in practice, a standard form of equation-of-state density-search algorithm may be the most convenient and satisfactory. Such algorithms usually use an initial estimate of the density (e.g., the ideal-gas approximation for low density
gaseous states) and proceed to calculate the pressure p. In an iterative procedure the value of is changed
in order to find the final reduced density which reproduces the known value of p to within a pre-established
level of agreement. A suitable criterion in the present case is that the pressure calculated from the iteratively
determined reduced density shall reproduce the input value of p at least to within 1 part in 106.
5.3 Implementation
Once the independent variables reduced density inverse reduced temperature , and molar composition x
of the mixture are known, the reduced Helmholtz free energy and the other thermodynamic properties (see
table 1) can be calculated. Equation (2) formulates the reduced Helmholtz free energy as =o+
r. The
relations for the ideal-gas part o are given in equations (6) and (7). The relations for the residual part
r,
which is formulated as a function of the reduced density the inverse reduced temperature , and the molar
composition x , are specified in equations (5) and (8) to (12) so as to give the following expression for :

6 Ranges of application

12 © ISO 2011 – All rights reserved
6.1 Pure gases
The temperature and pressure ranges of validity for the pure fluid equations of state are listed in table 2. For these ranges, the equations have been tested with experimental data. The lower temperatures correspond to the triple point temperatures of the substances. For the main components, the equations have been tested for temperatures up to at least 600 K and pressures up to 300 MPa. For the secondary alkanes, the equations have been tested for temperatures up to 500 K and pressures up to at least 35 MPa. For the other secondary components the temperatures range up to at least 400 K (water up to 1273 K) and pressures range up to at least 100 MPa. The extrapolation to temperatures and pressures far beyond the listed (tested) ranges of validity yields reasonable results.

6.2 Binary mixtures
Table 3 summarizes the available data for volumetric and caloric properties of all binary mixtures considered
in this method. Almost half of the total number of data points are from those 15 mixtures for which binary
specific or generalized departure functions have been developed. The majority of the data (approximately
65%) describe the pT relation, approximately 25% are vapor-liquid equilibrium, and about 9% are caloric
properties.
(a) Specific departure functions
Table 4 lists the binary mixtures for which either binary specific or generalized departure functions have been
developed because sufficiently accurate and extensive data are available. Binary specific departure functions
are given for the binary mixtures of methane with nitrogen, carbon dioxide, ethane, propane, and hydrogen,
and of nitrogen with carbon dioxide and ethane (see also figure 2).
The temperature range of the experimental data used to test the equations developed for the binary mixtures
covers approximately 80 K to 700 K at pressures up to 70 MPa and more (e.g., 100 MPa for methane–carbon
dioxide and 750 MPa for methane–nitrogen). The composition ranges from nearly 0 to 1 for all mixtures listed
above; see [2] for further details.
(b) Generalized departure functions
A generalized departure function was developed for eight binary mixtures of secondary alkanes (see table 4).
The generalized departure function is used for the binary mixtures of methane with n-butane and isobutane,
ethane with propane, n-butane, and isobutane, propane with n-butane and isobutane, and n-butane with
isobutane.
Aside from experimental data for these binary mixtures, selected volumetric and caloric properties for the well-
measured binary alkane mixtures methane–ethane and methane–propane were also used for the
development of the generalized departure function for secondary binary alkane mixtures. The final structure
of the generalized departure function is almost completely based on accurate and comprehensive data sets
for the three binary systems methane–ethane, methane–propane, and methane–n-butane, with more than
6,200 selected data points used (about 1,000 data points for the methane–n-butane binary system). The
temperature range of the experimental data used to test the equations developed for the secondary binary
alkane mixtures covers roughly 95 K to 600 K at pressures up to 35 MPa (70 MPa for methane–n-butane).
The composition ranges from nearly 0 to 1 for all mixtures listed above; see [2] for further details.
(c) No departure functions
For all of the remaining binary mixtures, no departure function was developed (see figure 2). The
corresponding binary mixtures are either characterized by limited data, which do not permit the development
of binary specific or generalized departure functions, or are of minor importance for the description of the
thermodynamic properties of (multi-component) natural gases due to the small mole fractions of the respective
components. Fitting the parameters of the reducing functions for density and temperature to selected
experimental data is sufficient and yields accurate results for most of the binary mixtures. In those cases
where sufficient experimental data are not available, the parameters of the reducing functions for density and
temperature are either set to unity or modified (calculated) in such a manner that the critical parameters of the
pure components are combined in a different way, which proved to be more suitable for certain binary
subsystems (see also Annex E.1).
For the temperature, pressure, and composition ranges covered by the experimental data used to test the
equations developed for the binary mixtures without a departure function, i.e., by adjusting the reducing
functions for density and temperature only, see [2].

6.3 Range of validity for natural gases
The method described in this part of ISO 20765 applies to the calculation of thermodynamic properties of
natural gases and similar mixtures in the homogeneous (single-phase) region (gas, liquid, and dense fluid) for
normal and extended ranges of application. The ranges of validity in this part is defined as follows.
Pressure and temperature ranges
The relevant ranges of pressure and temperature are given in table 5. The method described in this part of
the standard applies strictly to mixtures in a homogeneous state (gas, liquid, and dense fluid).
Table 5 — Normal ranges of application
Pressure (absolute) 0 < p / MPa 35
Temperature 90 T / K 450
Composition ranges
Pipeline quality natural gas is taken as a natural (or similar) gas with mole fractions of the various components
that fall within the ranges given in the third column of table 6. The method described in ISO 20765-1 applies
only to pipeline quality natural gases for those ranges of pressure and temperature within which transmission
and distribution operations normally take place. The method given in this standard also applies to these
conditions as well as an expanded composition range of natural gas as given in the fourth column of table 6.
Accurate and extensive experimental data sets are available within the composition ranges listed in the table
below and have been used to validate the quality of the method presented here (see 7.4). Possible trace
components of natural gases, and details of how to deal with these, are discussed in Annex F. This method is

not applicable where the total of all trace components exceeds 0.000 5 mole fraction.
Beyond the expanded quality range is the extended composition range that covers the full composition range
for all mixture components, i.e., from 0 to 1. Due to the limited data situation, results obtained for multi-
component mixtures in the extended range of validity should be carefully assessed. The method can be used
for temperatures above 700 K and pressures above 70 MPa. However, due to the limited data situation it is
difficult to estimate the uncertainty of the method (see 7).

NOTE 1 The method described in this part of the standard is applicable even for the individual pure components with
high accuracy (i.e., to within experimental uncertainty). For this application, the tested ranges of validity for temperature
and pressure is given in table 2.
NOTE 2 The accurate description of the thermodynamic properties of multi-component mixtures by the GERG-2008
equation of state is based on the accurate and wide-ranging equations of the binary subsystems, which were developed
with experimental data that generally cover the entire composition range. Therefore, it can be expected that even multi-
component natural gases of very unusual composition will be accurately described.

7 Uncertainty of the equation of state
7.1 Background
When ranges of uncertainties are given, the upper uncertainty value should be used unless further comparisons are made with the information given in the technical report to verify that the lower uncertainty value is valid for a particular application. The uncertainty in this document has a 95% confidence level (coverage factor k = 2).
7.2 Uncertainty for pure gases
7.2.1 Natural gas main components
The estimated uncertainties in calculated density and speed of sound for the natural gas main components methane, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and ethane are summarized in table 8. For methane, more details are given in figures 3 and 4; details for nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and ethane are given in [1]. The estimated uncertainties in gas phase density and speed of sound range from 0.03% to 0.05% over wide ranges of temperature (e.g., up to 450 K) and at pressures up to 30 MPa. In the liquid phase at pressures up to 30 MPa, the estimated uncertainties in density range from 0.05% to 0.1%. At higher temperatures or pressures, the estimated uncertainties in calculated speed of sound are generally higher than in calculated density because of less accurate data.
7.2.2 Secondary alkanes
The estimated uncertainties in calculated density, speed of sound, and isobaric heat capacity for the secondary alkanes propane, n-butane, isobutane, n-pentane, isopentane, n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, n-nonane, and n-decane are summarized in table 9. For calculated densities, uncertainties of 0.2% were estimated, whereas calculations of speed of sound and isobaric heat capacity have estimated uncertainties between 1% and 2%.

7.2.3 Other secondary components
For oxygen and argon, the estimated uncertainties in calculated density, speed of sound, and isobaric heat
capacity are as stated in table 9 for the secondary alkanes.
The estimated uncertainties in calculated density for the other secondary components, namely hydrogen,
carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, and helium, at supercritical temperatures and for pressures up to 30 MPa
are less than 0.2% and at higher pressures less than 0.5%. In general, higher uncertainties may occur in the
liquid phase and for other thermodynamic properties.
For hydrogen at temperatures above 270 K and pressures up to 30 MPa, the uncertainty in calculated density
is less than 0.1%. At pressures above 30 MPa, the uncertainty in density is slightly higher, approximately
(0.2 – 0.3)%. The equations for hydrogen and helium are designed to be valid at low (absolute) temperatures,
which occur in their sub- and supercritical regions. This is of particular importance for the mixture model
presented here since for pure substances the reduced temperature range 1.2 ≤ T/Tc ≤ 1.8 corresponds to the
region where the highest accuracy in the description of thermodynamic properties of typical natural gases is
demanded.
For water, calculated liquid densities and vapor pressures have an estimated uncertainty of 0.2%. Other
properties have higher uncertainties as detailed in the technical report.
7.3 Uncertainty for binary mixtures
The most accurate binary mixture data were used for the development of the GERG-2008 equation of state. However, in regions where these data are not available, less accurate data were also taken into account for the development and assessment of the equation. Experimental data for multi-component mixtures were used for the validation of the quality of the equation only. The total uncertainties of the most accurate experimental binary and multi-component mixture data with respect to selected thermodynamic properties are listed in table 10. The tabulated values represent the lowest uncertainties possible that can be achieved by the mixture model presented here. The corresponding experimental results are based on modern measurement techniques, which fulfill present quality standards. They are characterized by uncertainties equal to or below the lowest values listed in table 10. In contrast to the experimental uncertainties given for pure fluid properties measured using state-of-the-art techniques, the experimental uncertainties estimated for the properties of mixtures measured with the same apparatuses are, in general, higher due to the significant contribution of the uncertainty in the mixture composition.
Over wide ranges of temperature, pressure, and composition, the uncertainties tabulated below are mostly valid for those binary systems where binary specific departure functions were developed, see 6.2 and table 4. Due to limited experimental data (e.g., accurate speed of sound measurements are available for only a few binary systems), the uncertainties are partly valid for the remaining binary mixtures, including those binary systems for which a generalized departure function was developed, see 6.2 and [1].
General estimates of the uncertainties of the GERG-2008 equation of state in the description of selected thermodynamic properties are given in table 11. The different binary mixtures are distinguished by adjusted reducing functions and a binary specific departure function, adjusted reducing functions and a generalized departure function, or only adjusted reducing functions (without a departure function) to describe the mixtures. Uncertainty values are given for different pressures, temperatures, and (approximate) reduced temperature ranges.
ISO/CD 20765-2

NOTE h indicates a difference between two state points, h(T2,p2)-h(T1,p1).
From table 11 it is evident that binary systems with a binary specific departure function generally have the
lowest uncertainty for the different properties as compared to the other binary systems with either a
generalized departure function or only modified reducing parameters. Gas phase densities and speeds of
sound have uncertainties of ≤ 0.1% for binary mixtures with a binary specific departure function. The relative
uncertainty in isobaric and isochoric heat capacity is estimated to be less than (1 – 2)% in the homogeneous
gas, liquid, and supercritical regions independent of the type of developed binary equation.

7.4 Uncertainty for natural gases
The GERG-2008 wide-range equation of state for natural gases and other (multi-component and binary) mixtures, consisting of the components listed in table 6, is valid in the gas phase, in the liquid phase, in the supercritical region, and for vapor-liquid equilibrium states. For natural gases and similar mixtures, a normal range of validity and an extended range of validity were defined. The extrapolation to temperatures and pressures even far beyond the extended range of validity yields reasonable results. The estimated uncertainties for the different ranges of validity, as described below, are based on the representation of the available experimental data for various thermodynamic properties of natural gases and other multi-component mixtures by the GERG-2008 equation of state as summarized in table 12.
In general, there are no restrictions in the composition range of binary and multi-component mixtures. But, since the estimated uncertainty of the GERG-2008 equation of state is based on the experimental data used for the development and evaluation of the equation, the uncertainty is mostly unknown for composition ranges not covered by experimental data. The data situation allows for well-founded uncertainty estimates only for selected properties and parts of the fluid surface.
Most of the available experimental data for multi-component mixtures describe the pT relation of natural
gases and similar mixtures in the gas phase. The majority of these data cover the temperature range 270 K ≤
T ≤ 350 K at pressures up to 30 MPa [1,2] and were measured for pipeline quality natural gas. There are a
number of additional experimental data available that define the composition range of wider quality natural gas, e.g., measurements on rich natural gases with comparatively high content of carbon dioxide, ethane, propane, and n-butane; see table 6 for the composition ranges defined for pipeline quality and expanded quality natural gases. As mentioned in 6.3, pipeline quality natural gases are a subset of the expanded quality natural gases.

Further data not included in table 12 were used to validate the quality of the GERG-2008 equation of state, e.g., recent dew-point measurements for a number of different natural gases and other multi-component mixtures, see [2].
7.4.1 Uncertainty in the normal and expanded ranges of validity of natural gas
The normal range of validity of natural gas covers the temperature range 90 K ≤ T ≤ 450 K for pressures up to
35 MPa, see 6.3, table 5. This range corresponds to the use of the equation in both standard and advanced
technical applications using natural gases and similar mixtures, e.g., pipeline transport, natural gas storage,
and improved processes with liquefied natural gas. Estimated uncertainties for the composition subsets
―pipeline quality natural gas‖ and ―expanded quality natural gas‖ are summarized in table 13.

a For rich natural gases, i.e., for natural gas mixtures that contain comparatively large

−1 and compositions within the limits
stated in table 6, the upper uncertainty value in density is estimated to be 0.5%.
Pipeline quality natural gas Density data in the gas phase for pipeline quality natural gases are described by the equation with an
uncertainty of / ≤ 0.1% (over the temperature range 250 K ≤ T ≤ 450 K and for pressures up to 35 MPa).
The uncertainty in speed of sound is likewise less than 0.1%. However, due to limited experimental data, this uncertainty is restricted to pressures below 20 MPa; at temperatures below 270 K it is restricted to pressures below 12 MPa. The most accurate liquid or saturated liquid density data are described within 0.1% to 0.3%, which is in agreement with the estimated experimental uncertainty of the measurements.
Expanded quality natural gas This quality range of natural gases comprises a wider composition range than given by the pipeline quality natural gases. The wider composition range is almost identical to the composition range covered by the available experimental natural gas and similar multi-component mixture data, including several data sets for natural gases containing synthetic mixtures, ternary mixtures of natural gas main components, and rich
ISO/CD 20765-2
24 © ISO 2011 – All rights reserved
natural gases. Rich natural gases contain large amounts of carbon dioxide (up to 0.20 mole fraction), ethane (up to 0.18), propane (up to 0.14), n-butane (up to 0.06), n-pentane (0.005), and n-hexane (0.002).
For mixtures that fall within the wider composition range defined in table 6, the estimated uncertainty in gas
phase density is ≤ 0.1% for molar masses M ≤ 26 kg∙kmol−1
; see equation (18) for the calculation of the molar
mass from the given mixture composition. For mixtures with molar masses M > 26 kg∙kmol−1
, the uncertainty
in gas phase density is 0.1% to 0.3%. For other thermodynamic properties, well-founded estimates of uncertainty cannot be given due to the limited data situation.
NOTE 1 For rich natural gases, the lower temperature limit is increased because dew point temperatures are considerably higher for these types of mixtures, which contain comparatively large amounts of carbon dioxide, ethane,
propane, and the further secondary alkanes.
NOTE 2 Within the mole fraction limits defined for pipeline quality natural gas, the molar mass of any mixture will
always be lower than 26 kg∙kmol−1
.
Uncertainty in the extended range of validity, and calculation of properties beyond this range
The extended range of validity covers temperatures of 60 K ≤ T ≤ 700 K and pressures up to 70 MPa. The
uncertainty of the equation in gas phase density at temperatures and pressures outside the normal range of
validity is roughly estimated to be (0.2 – 0.5)%. For certain mixtures, the extended range of validity covers
temperatures of T > 700 K and pressures of p > 70 MPa. For example, the equation accurately describes gas
phase density data of air to within ±(0.1 – 0.2)% at temperatures up to 900 K and pressures up to 90 MPa.
For other thermodynamic properties, well-founded estimates of uncertainty cannot be given due to the limited
data situation outside the normal range of validity. However, the estimates given for the pure substance
equations and for the different binary systems give some clue as to what may be expected with respect to the
description of other thermodynamic properties in the extended range of validity.
When larger uncertainties are acceptable, tests have shown that the equation can be reasonably used outside
the extended range of validity. For example, density data (frequently of questionable and low accuracy
outside the extended range of validity) for certain binary mixtures are described to within ±(0.5 – 1)% at
pressures up to 100 MPa and more.
7.5 Uncertainties in other properties
An estimate of the uncertainty z of the equation of state in any property z other than the density and not
explicitly listed above, such as Joule-Thomson coefficient or isentropic exponent, can be obtained by
calculating
z z T x1 1 ( , , ) (37)
and
z z T x2 2 ( , , ) (38)
with
2 1 , (39)
where is the absolute uncertainty in density for given values of , T, and x . Then, the absolute
uncertainty in the property z corresponds to the difference
z z z 2 1 . (40)
This value most likely under estimates the uncertainty in the property.
7.6 Impact of uncertainties of input variables
The user should recognize that uncertainties in the input variables, usually pressure, temperature and composition by mole fractions, will have additional effects upon the uncertainty of any calculated result. The uncertainties given so far for calculated results in 7 assume the input data are exact. In any particular
ISO/CD 20765-2

application where the additional uncertainty may be of importance the user should carry out sensitivity tests to determine its magnitude. Varying the input variables may do this.

where all variables with the subscript ―0‖ refer to an arbitrary reference state. The reference state of zero
enthalpy and zero entropy is here adopted at T0 = 298.15 K and p0 = 0.101 325 MPa for the ideal gas. The
integration constants ho0 and s
o0 are then determined so as to conform to this definition. The reference density
o0 is given by
o0=p0/(RT0).
In order to obtain an explicit equation for ao(,T), an equation for the ideal-gas isobaric heat capacity c

In equation (D.1), the first term on the right-hand side, ro( , , x ), describes the contribution of the residual
parts of the reduced Helmholtz free energy of the pure substance equations of state, which are multiplied by
the mole fraction of the corresponding substance and linearly combined using the reduced variables and
of the mixture, to the residual part of the reduced Helmholtz free energy of the mixture. The second term is the
departure function, r ( , , x ), which is the summation over all binary specific and generalized departure
functions. The variables and are the reduced mixture density and inverse reduced mixture temperature,
respectively, as given by
r( )x (D.4)
and
T x

For each of the pure substances, the equations for roi use the same basic structure, however, the number of
terms differ. For the main components, the equations consist of 24 terms for methane, nitrogen, and ethane and of 22 terms for carbon dioxide. For the secondary alkanes and the other secondary components (oxygen, carbon monoxide, helium, hydrogen sulfide, and argon), 12 terms are used, while the equations for hydrogen
and water consist of 14 and 16 terms, respectively. The values of the coefficients noi,k and exponents doi,k, toi,k,

D.3 Calculation of the departure function contribution to the residual part of the reduced Helmholtz free energy
The purpose of the departure function is to further improve the accuracy of the mixture model in the
description of thermodynamic properties in cases where fitting the parameters of the reducing functions for
density and temperature (see Annex E) to accurate experimental data is not sufficient. The departure function
r of the multicomponent mixture is the double summation over all binary specific and generalized departure
functions developed for the binary subsystems and is given by

the reduced mixture variables and , as given by

where rij( , ) was developed either for a specific binary mixture (a binary specific departure function
with binary specific coefficients, exponents, and parameters) or for a group of binary mixtures (generalized
departure function with a uniform structure for the group of binary mixtures).
The values of the coefficients nij,k, the exponents dij,k and tij,k, and the parameters ij,k, ij,k, ij,k, and ij,k in
equation (D.19) for all binary specific and generalized departure functions considered in the mixture model are
given in table D.4. The values of the non-zero Fij parameters in equation (D.18) are listed in table D.5.
D.3.1 Binary specific departure functions
Binary specific departure functions were developed for the binary mixtures of methane with nitrogen, carbon
dioxide, ethane, propane, and hydrogen, and of nitrogen with carbon dioxide and ethane. For a binary specific
departure function, the adjustable factor Fij in equation (D.18) equals unity.
D.3.2 Generalised departure functions
A generalized departure function was developed for the binary mixtures of methane with n-butane and
isobutane, of ethane with propane, n-butane, and isobutane, of propane with n-butane and isobutane, and of
n-butane with isobutane. For each mixture in the group of generalized binary mixtures, the parameter Fij is
fitted to the corresponding binary specific data (except for the binary system methane–n-butane, where Fij
equals unity).
D.3.3 No departure functions
For all of the remaining binary mixtures, no departure function was developed, and Fij equals zero, i.e.,
rij( , , x ) equals zero. For most of these mixtures, however, the parameters of the reducing functions for
density and temperature are fitted to selected experimental data (see Annex E).

The reducing functions for density and temperature
E.1 Calculation of the reducing functions for density and temperature
The composition-dependent reducing functions are used to calculate the reduced mixture variables and (i.e., dimensionless mixture density and temperature, respectively) according to
r( )x (E.1)
and

r( ) . (E.2)

with v,ij = 1/v,ji, v,ij = v,jj, ,ij = 1/,ji, and ,ij = ,ji. These functions are based on quadratic mixing rules and
with that they are reasonably connected to physically well-founded mixing rules. The binary parameters of
equations (E.3) and (E.4) consider the deviation between the behavior of the real mixture and the one
resulting from the ideal combining rules for the critical parameters of the pure components.
The values of the binary parameters v,ij, v,ij, ,ij, and ,ij in equations (E.3) and (E.4) for all binary mixtures
are listed in table E.1. The critical parameters c,i and Tc,i of the pure components are given in Annex C.
E.1.1 Binary parameters for mixtures with no or very poor experimental data
The binary parameters v,ij and v,ij in equation (E.3) and ,ij and ,ij in equation (E.4) are fitted to
experimental data for binary mixtures. In those cases where sufficient experimental data are not available, the
parameters of equations (E.3) and (E.4) are either set to unity or modified (calculated) in such a manner that
the critical parameters of the pure components are combined in a different way, which proved to be more
suitable for certain binary subsystems. For example, for binary hydrocarbon mixtures for which no data or only
few or very poor data are available, v,ij and ,ij are set to one, and the binary parameters v,ij and ,ij are
calculated from the following conversions:

In this way, the original Lorentz and Berthelot combining rules for the critical parameters of the pure
components in equations (E.3) and (E.4) are substituted by the arithmetic mean of the critical parameters. The
use of different combining rules is superfluous when data are used to adjust the binary parameters.

Annex F (informative)
Assignment of trace components
In order to calculate, with the use of the method described in this part of ISO 20765, the thermodynamic properties of a natural gas or similar mixture that contains trace amounts of one or more components that do not appear in table 6, it is necessary to assign each trace component to one of the 21 major and minor components for which the GERG-2008 equation of state was developed. Recommendations for appropriate assignments are given in table F.1.
Each recommendation is based on an assessment of which substance is likely to give the best overall compromise of accuracy for the complete set of thermodynamic properties. The factors taken into account in this assessment include molar mass, critical temperature, and critical volume. Because, however, no single assignment is likely to be equally satisfactory for all properties, it is not unreasonable that the user may prefer an alternative assignment for a particular application in which, for example, only a single property is needed. For this reason the recommendations are not normative. Implementations of the method that include assignments for trace components need to be carefully documented in this respect.
NOTE The additional components given in table F.1 are the same as those included in ISO 6976 [7].
