Hi!!

Does anyone knows the formula that gives the corrected density to 15 oC for petroleum (generalized products), and the formula that gives the volume correction factor to 15 oC?????? huh.gif huh.gif

It is listed in ASTM petroleum measurement tables - volume X which I don't have.

I want to make an excel file that calculates automatically petroleum volume in 15oC, by just entering
the volume in physical temp.

Try Vol VII ASTM D 1250-80

You may also try my spreadsheet which can also be found here: www.ViscoAnalyser.com/page8.html (where there are some other calculations).
I'd appreciate any feedback.
This spreadsheet includes the hydrometer corrections if required and presents the volume correction factor.
By using a suitable step sequence you can go from the observed density to an alternative density via base density, as required by the manual.
Do note, however, that the exact calculation from the manual is not used here as it is intended to be a practical aid and to provide metric data.
