ABSTRACT:
A monitor which provides a signal corresponding to the Universal Oil Product (UOP) characterization factor of a hydrocarbon stream includes apparatus for sampling a portion of the hydrocarbon stream. Other apparatus changes the temperature of the sample to a predetermined temperature. A viscosity analyzer receives the sample and provides a signal corresponding to the viscosity of the hydrocarbon stream at the predetermined temperature. A refractometer receives the sample and provides a signal corresponding to the refractive index of the hydrocarbon stream at the predetermined temperature. An output network connected to the viscosity analyzer and to the refractometer provides the signal corresponding to the UOP characterization factor in accordance with the signals from the viscosity analyzer and the refractometer.
