<p>A method and system for the determination of cloud point temperature in fuel oils comprises measuring light scattering from the fuel sample during cooling, measured scattering data is correlated to a numerical model, the next measurement is estimated from the model, the deviation of the next measured datum from the model is determined, and that deviation is amplified subject to discriminatory factors, the amplified deviation is recombined with the original signal, the amplified signal is examined for changes that are indicative of the cloud point temperature, the model parameters are re-evaluated to include the current datum and give improved estimation of the next measured datum.</p> |
