Mass calculations for a Batch Transfer

  • Last UpdatedApr 24, 2025
  • 1 minute read

For each Batch Transfer Source, a new mass value is calculated for each processing cycle:

Current Batch Transfer Source Mass = Previous Batch Transfer Source mass + delta mass

Where Delta Mass is determined based on the type of the Batch Transfer Source:

  • If the Batch Transfer Source is a Virtual Flow Computer (VFC), the delta mass provided by the accumulators of the VFC is used:

    Delta Mass = Sum (VFC's accumulator delta mass)

  • If the Batch Transfer Source is any other device type, the delta volume provided by the device is multiplied by the density associated with the device to calculate Delta Mass:

    Delta Mass = Delta volume of source device x Weighted Average Density

For each Batch Transfer record, the mass value is the aggregation of the mass values of the associated Batch Transfer Sources:

Batch Transfer Mass = Sum (Batch Transfer Source mass)
