Abstract:
1. A method for determining at least one variable dependent at least on the chemical composition of a measured medium, wherein the measured medium has n components, wherein n is greater than or equal to two, comprising the step of: measuring each mole fraction, volume fraction and/or mass fraction of m components of the measured medium, wherein: m is smaller than or equal to n minus one; mole fractions, volume fractions and/or mass fractions of k components of the measured medium, which are not measured; k is equal to n minus m, established in such a manner, that a sum of the mole fractions, volume fractions and/or mass fractions of the n components amounts to one; and the mole fraction, volume fractions and/or mass fractions of the k components of the measured nedium which are not measured, are assigned by means of a function f, wherein the function f is dependent on the qualitative chemical composition of the measured medium and/or on the molefractions, volume fractions and/or mass fractions of the m measured components.
