1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the water
vapor content of gaseous fuels by measurement of the dewpoint temperature and the calculation therefrom of the water
vapor content.
NOTE 1Some gaseous fuels contain vapors of hydrocarbons or other
components that easily condense into liquid and sometimes interfere with
or mask the water dew point. When this occurs, it is sometimes very
helpful to supplement the apparatus in Fig. 1 with an optical attachment
that uniformly illuminates the dewpoint mirror and also magnifies the
condensate on the mirror. With this attachment it is possible, in some
cases, to observe separate condensation points of water vapor, hydrocarbons, and glycolamines as well as ice points. However, if the dew point of
the condensable hydrocarbons is higher than the water vapor dew point,
when such hydrocarbons are present in large amounts, they may flood the
mirror and obscure or wash off the water dew point. Best results in
distinguishing multiple component dew points are obtained when they are
not too closely spaced.
NOTE 2Condensation of water vapor on the dew-point mirror may
appear as liquid water at temperatures as low as 0 to 10F (18
to 23C). At lower temperatures an ice point rather than a water dew
point likely will be observed. The minimum dew point of any vapor that
can be observed is limited by the mechanical parts of the equipment.
Mirror temperatures as low as 150F (100C) have been measured,
using liquid nitrogen as the coolant with a thermocouple attached to the
mirror, instead of a thermometer well.
2. Terminology
2.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:
2.1.1 saturated water vapor or equilibrium watervapor
contentthe water vapor concentration in a gas mixture that is
in equilibrium with a liquid phase of pure water that is
saturated with the gas mixture. When a gas containing water
vapor is at the water dew-point temperature, it is said to be
saturated at the existing pressure.
2.1.2 specific volumeof a gaseous fuel, the volume of the
gas in cubic feet per pound.
2.1.3 water dew-point temperatureof a gaseous fuel, the
temperature at which the gas is saturated with water vapor at
the existing pressure.
3. Significance and Use
3.1 Generally, contracts governing the pipeline transmission
of natural gas contain specifications limiting the maximum
concentration of water vapor allowed. Excess water vapor can
cause corrosive conditions, degrading pipelines and equipment.
It can also condense and freeze or form methane hydrates
causing blockages. Watervapor content also affects the heating value of natural gas, thus influencing the quality of the gas.
This test method permits the determination of water content of
natural gas.
4. Apparatus
4.1 Any properly constructed dew-point apparatus may be
used that satisfies the basic requirements that means must be
provided:
4.1.1 To permit a controlled flow of gas to enter and leave
the apparatus while the apparatus is at a temperature at least
3F above the dew point of the gas.
4.1.2 To cool and control the cooling rate of a portion
(preferably a small portion) of the apparatus, with which the
flowing gas comes in contact, to a temperature low enough to
cause vapor to condense from the gas.

silver-soldered is a part of the base of the thermometer well,
and as there is no metallic contact between the thermometer
well and the cooling tube, other than through its base, the
thermometer or RTD indicates the temperature of the mirror
rather than some compromise temperature influenced by the
temperature gradient along the cooling tube as would be the
case if this type of construction were not used. The RTD will
include suitable electronics and display.
4.2.2 Tests with the Bureau of Mines type of dew-point
apparatus are reported2 to permit a determination with a
precision (reproducibility) of 60.2F (60.1C) and with an
accuracy of 60.2F (60.1C) when the dew-point temperatures range from room temperature to a temperature of 32F
(0C). It is estimated that water dew points may be determined
with an accuracy of 60.5F (0.3C) when they are below 32F
(0C) and not lower than 0F (17.8C), provided ice crystals
do not form during the determination.
5. Procedure
5.1 General ConsiderationsTake the specimen so as to be
representative of the gas at the source. Do not take at a point
where isolation would permit condensate to collect or would
otherwise allow a vapor content to exist that is not in
equilibrium with the main stream or supply of gas, such as the
sorption or desorption of vapors from the sampling line or from
deposits therein. The temperature of the pipelines leading the
specimen directly from the gas source to the dew-point
apparatus, and also the temperature of the apparatus, shall be at
least 3F (1.7C) higher than the observed dew point. The
determination may be made at any pressure, but the gas
pressure within the dew-point apparatus must be known with
an accuracy appropriate to the accuracy requirements of the
test. The pressure may be read on a calibrated bourdon-type
pressure gage; for very low pressures or more accurate
measurements, a mercury-filled manometer or a dead-weight
gage should be used.
5.2 Detailed Procedure for Operation of Bureau of Mines
Dew-Point ApparatusIntroduce the gas specimen through
valve A (Fig. 1), opening this valve wide if the test is to be
made under full source pressure (Note 3), and controlling the
flow by the small outlet valve, D. The rate of flow is not critical
but should not be so great that there is a measurable or
objectionable drop in pressure through the connecting lines and
dew-point apparatus. A flow of 0.05 to 0.5 ft3/min (1.4 to 14
L/min) (measured at atmospheric pressure) usually will be
satisfactory. With liquefied refrigerant gas piped to the chiller
throttle valve, H, crack the valve momentarily, allowing the
refrigerant to vaporize in the chiller to produce suitable
lowering in temperature of the chiller tube, F, and target
mirror, C, as indicated by the thermometer, K. The rate of
cooling may be as rapid as desired in making a preliminary
test. After estimating the dew-point temperature, either by a
preliminary test or from other knowledge, control the cooling
or warming rate so that it does not exceed 1F/min (0.5C/min)
when this temperature is approached. For accurate results, the
6. Calculation
6.1 If an acceptable chart showing the variation of watervapor content with saturation or water dew-point temperatures
over a suitable range of pressures for the gas being tested is
available, the water-vapor content may be read directly, using
the observed water dew-point temperature and the pressure at
which the determination was made.
6.2 If such a chart is not available, the watervapor content
of the gas may be calculated from the water dew-point
temperature and the pressure at which it was determined (see
Note 3), as follows:

where:
W = lb of water/million ft3 of gaseous mixture at pressure
Pb and temperature Tb;
w = weight of saturated water vapor, lb/ft3, at the water
dew-point temperature, that is, the reciprocal of the
specific volume of saturated vapor (see Table 1);
Pb = pressure-base of gas measurement, psia;
P = pressure at which the water dew point of gas was
determined, psia;
t

T = Rankine (absolute Fahrenheit scale) water dew point,
t + 460, at pressure P; and
Tb = base temperature of gas measurement, tb + 460.
NOTE 4Example 1:
Given: Water dew point = 37F at 15.0-psia pressure.
What is the watervapor content million ft3 of gas (gas measurement
base of 60F and 14.7-psia pressure)?
From Table 1 the specific volume of saturated water at 37F is 2731.9
ft3/lb, from which:
w = (1/2731.9) = 0.000 366 0 lb/ft3
and
W = 0.000 366 0 3 10 6 3 (14.7/15.0) 3 [(460 + 37)/(460 + 60)]
= 342.8 lb/million ft3
Example 2:
Given: Water dew point = 5F at 14.4 psia.
From Table 2, the specific volume of saturated water vapor with respect
to ice at 5F is 11 550 ft3/lb from which Wice, 5F = 0.000 086 6, but the
observed water dew point was in equilibrium with subcooled liquid water
at 5F. From Table 2 (data from International Critical Tables3), the vapor
pressures of subcooled liquid water and of ice at 5F (15C) are 1.436
mm and 1.241 mm Hg, respectively.
Since the vapor pressure of subcooled liquid water is greater than ice at
the same temperature, the weight per cubic foot of water vapor in
equilibrium with liquid water will be proportionately larger than the value
calculated from the specific volume read from the table, which is for
equilibrium with ice.
Hence,

~Pb/14.7! 3 [519.6/~tb 1 459.6!# 3 ~0.998/Zb!

Pb = absolute base pressure, psia;
tb = base temperature, F; and
Zb = compressibility factor under base conditions.
