%0 Journal Article %T Revised Standardized Equation for Hydrogen Gas Densities for Fuel Consumption Applications %A Lemmon %A Eric W. %A Huber %A Marcia L. %A Leachman %A Jacob W. %J Journal of Research of the National Institute of Standards and Technology %D 2008 %I The National Institute of Standards and Technology %X An equation for the density of hydrogen gas has been developed that agrees with the current standard to within 0.01% from 220 K to 1000 K with pressures up to 70 MPa, to within 0.01% from 255 K to 1000 K with pressures to 120 MPa, and to within 0.1% from 200 K to 1000 K up to 200 MPa. The equation is a truncated virial-type equation based on pressure and temperature dependent terms. The density uncertainty for this equation is the same as the current standard and is estimated to be 0.04% (combined uncertainty with a coverage factor of 2) between 250 K and 450 K for all pressures, and 0.1% for lower temperatures. Comparisons are presented with experimental data and with the full equation of state. %K density %K equation of state %K fuel consumption %K hydrogen %K pressure %K temperature %U http://nvl.nist.gov/pub/nistpubs/jres/113/6/V113.N06.A05.pdf
