Abstract: Detector data representative of an intensity of light that impinges on a detector after being emitted from a light source and passing through a gas over a path length can be analyzed using a first analysis method to obtain a first calculation of an analyte concentration in the volume of gas and a second analysis method to obtain a second calculation of the analyte concentration. The second calculation can be promoted as the analyte concentration upon determining that the analyte concentration is out of a first target range for the first analysis method.

Abstract: Low concentrations of water vapor within a background of one or more hydrocarbon gases may be detected and quantified using a differential absorption spectrometer. A dehydrated sample of the gas is used as a background sample whose absorption spectrum allows elimination of absorption features not due to water vapor in the gas. Absorption spectra may recorded using tunable diode lasers as the light source, these lasers may have a wavelength bandwidth that is narrower than the water vapor absorption feature used for the differential absorption spectral analysis.

Abstract: An energy content meter can spectroscopically quantify oxidation products after oxidation of a combustible mixture.

Abstract: Concentrations of a target analyte in a gas mixture containing one or more background analytes having potentially interfering spectral absorption features can be calculated by compensating for background analyte absorption at a target wavelength used to quantify the target analyte. Absorption can be measured at a reference wavelength (302) chosen to quantify the concentration of the background analyte. Using a background gas adjustment factor or function, the absorption measured at the reference wavelength can be used to calculate absorption due to the background analyte at the target wavelength (304) and thereby compensate for this background absorption to more accurately calculate the target analyte concentration in real or near real time (306). Additional background analytes can optionally be compensated for by using one or more additional reference wavelengths.

Abstract: A differential absorption spectrum for a reactive gas in a gas mixture can be generated for sample absorption data by subtracting background absorption data set from the sample absorption data. The background absorption data can be characteristic of absorption characteristics of the background composition in a laser light scan range that includes a target wavelength. The differential absorption spectrum can be converted to a measured concentration of the reactive gas using calibration data. A determination can be made whether the background composition has substantially changed relative to the background absorption data, and new background absorption data can be used if the background composition has substantially changed. Related systems, apparatus, methods, and/or articles are also described..
