ABSTRACT:
A system for measuring the physical characteristics of a hydrocarbon places a reference hydrocarbon cell in thermal contact with a sample cell containing an unknown hydrocarbon. A near infrared spectrum measurement is taken of both the cells. Measurement data from the sample cell is adjusted by the measurement data from the reference cell, and the adjusted measurement data is evaluated by a model to predict the characteristics of the sample. The model is built from a teaching set of hydrocarbons having known physical characteristics and the reference hydrocarbon. Each of the teaching set hydrocarbons is measured and then adjusted by a measurement of the same reference hydrocarbon, and the adjusted measurements are used to build the model.
