The calculations are completely in accordance with:

1. Starling, K.E., Savidge, J.L.: Compressibility Factors for
   Natural Gas and Other Hydrocarbon Gases", American Gas
   Association (AGA) Transmission Measurement Committee Report
   No. 8, American Petroleum Institute (API) MpMS, chapter
   14.2, second edition, November 1992.

The calculation of relative density, superior calorific value
and the conversion of volume and mass fractions into mole
fractions are in accordance with:
2. ISO 6976: Natural gas - calculation of calorific values,
   density, relative density and Wobbe index from composition

RESULTS OF CALCULATION:
FE-AGA8-1992 calculates the parameters of a natural gas mixture
at base and operating conditions (pressure & temperature).

The range of base and operating pressure varies from 0.1 Pa to
275.8 MPa (0.000001 to 2758 bar).
The range of base and operating temperature varies from 144 K to 678 K
(-129.15°C to 404.85°C).
You can select the proper unit for pressure (among 24 available
units) and temperature (among 4 available units).
The units of output parameters can also be changed. The following
parameters are calculated:

1.  Compression factor at base conditions
2.  Mass density at base conditions
3.  Molar density at base conditions
4.  Compression factor at operating conditions
5.  Mass density at operating conditions
6.  Molar density at operating conditions
7.  Supercompressibility factor
8.  Mixture molar mass
9.  Relative density at 0 °C and 1.01325 bar
10. Relative density at 15 °C and 1.01325 bar
11. Relative density at 20 °C and 1.01325 bar
12. Superior calorific value (25°C/0°C/1.01325bar)

From the right side of the parameter select the preferable unit.
