Abstract
A method for continuous analysis of mixtures for determining selective properties of components in the mixture flowing along a flow path includes the steps of, firstly, directly measuring and/or calculating the pressure, temperature, density and mass flow rate of the mixture at a first point upstream of a characteristic change zone in the flow path. A change in the characteristics of the mixture flow is caused in the characteristic change zone, and thereafter, the pressure, temperature, density and mass flow rate are measured directly and/or calculated at a second point downstream of a characteristic change zone. Selected properties of the mixture are determined on the basis of the information collected together with known parameters using algorithms.
