9 Measurement Principle background Liquids consisting of non-polar molecules such as hydrocarbon chain or hydrocarbon rings do not mix with water. Liquid Hydrocarbons can absorb a certain amount of water vapour (dissolved moisture) and thus have a limited saturation concentration. Dissolved moisture acts as a gas, exerting a partial pressure with corresponding dew-point temperature. Saturation concentration is specific to the liquid and highly dependant on temperature. Oil & Water Do Not Mix
10 Measurement Principle Henry s Law In chemistry, Henry's law is one of the gas laws. It was formulated by William Henry of Manchester, England in At a constant temperature, the amount of a given gas dissolved in a given type and volume of liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in equilibrium with that liquid. C C S P P W S Henry s law is applicable for organic liquid when the moisture content at saturation does not exceed 1%
11 Measurement Principle Henry s Law Henry s Law is used for determining the Weight Portion of moisture in total Liquid C C P S W C = Moisture concentration in ppmw C s = Saturation moisture concentration in ppmw at the temperature P w = Water vapour pressure from sensor measurement P s = Saturation water vapour pressure at the temperature K = C s /P s (Henry constant) S P The impedance sensor measures P w. To calculate C, the Cs must be known.
12 Measurement Principle Solubility Data (C S value) Example Calculated saturation concentration of typical LPG propane and butane mixtures Cs, ppmw Temperature of liquid, deg. C Propane Butane 70%C3-30%C4 80%C3-20%C4 90%C3-10%C4
13 Measurement Principle Calculation Example Cyclohexane with measured dew point of 20 o C and analysis temperature of +30 o C: Moisture content in ppm W = C S /P S x P W C S for cyclohexane at 30 o C sample temperature = 194 ppm W P W at 20 o C measured dew point = 103 Pa P S at 30 o C sample temperature = 4247 Pa ppm W = 194 x 103/4247 = 4.7 ppm W

20 Quartz Crystal Moisture Analyzers
21 Quartz Sensor Technology A quartz crystal is sensitised with a thin film of hygroscopic material. Water molecules are adsorbed into the hygroscopic layer deposited on the surface. The change in mass modifies, in a very precise and repeatable manner, the oscillation frequency. The moisture concentration is measured as a change in the oscillation frequency
