Transportable Moisture Limit (TML) Calculation

Online TML calculator to calculate Transportable Moisture Limit. The Transportable Moisture Limit (TML) is the maximum Gross Water Content (GWC) by weight that a Group A or liquefiable solid bulk cargo may contain while being transported on a bulk carrier without it being at risk of liquefying.

Formula:

$T M L = \frac{\frac{(m_{1} - m_{2})}{m_{1}} + \frac{(m_{3} - m_{4})}{m_{3}}}{2} \times 90$

Where:
m₁ = mass of wet sample just above the Flow Moisture Point (FMP),
m₂ = mass of dry sample just above the Flow Moisture Point (FMP),
m₃ = mass of wet sample just below the Flow Moisture Point (FMP), and
m₄ = mass of dry sample just below the Flow Moisture Point (FMP)
