1 Scope
This standard specifies the procedures for converting the reading of glass petroleum hydrometer (observed density) obtained at non-reference temperature into the density (density at 20℃) and volume correction factor at reference temperature.
This standard is applicable to crude oil, lubricating oil and other liquefied petrolatum products.
The reference temperature specified in this standard is 20℃.
The thermal expansion data of oil products used in Petroleum Measurement Tables in this standard are consistent with those in ISO 91-1.
Note: In the preparation, the thermal expansion coefficient adopted for reading correction of densimeter is the same as that in ISO 91-1, i.e. 23×10-6℃-1. The value is slightly lower than the conventional value (25× 10-6℃-1) referred in ISO 1768, but the coefficient difference has little influence on the correction results at the actual maximum temperature difference. If the Parties both consider that the effect of errors shall be considered, before looking up the table, deduct 0.000002ρt′(t-20) from the reading of densimeter, and ρt′ refers to the reading of glass densimeter and t refers to test temperature.
