Calculation
Density calculation
The standard density calculated using an iterative regime centred around the equation:
| Where | ||
|---|---|---|
| ρ0 | = | Initial density |
| T | = | Temperature |
| Pn | = | Parameter based upon derivatives relating the change in density to the change in temperature |
| HyC | = | Hydrometer Correction |
