  "heading": "Flow-weighted mean concentration",
  "text": "In some points of this section, it may be necessary to calculate a flow-weighted mean concentration to determine the applicability of certain provisions. A flow-weighted mean is the mean of a quantity after it is weighted proportional to a corresponding flow rate. For example, if a gas concentration is measured continuously from the raw exhaust gas of an engine, its flow-weighted mean concentration is the sum of the products of each recorded concentration times its respective exhaust gas molar flow rate, divided by the sum of the recorded flow rate values. As another example, the bag concentration from a CVS system is the same as the flow-weighted mean concentration because the CVS system itself flow-weights the bag concentration. A certain flow-weighted mean concentration of an emission at the emission limit value might be already expected based on previous testing with similar engines or testing with similar equipment and instruments.",
