Abstract
A concentration measurement method performed in a concentration measurement device including an electric unit having a light source and a photodetector, a fluid unit having a measurement cell through which a gas flows, and a processing circuit for calculating a concentration of the gas based on an intensity of a light passing through the measurement cell. The concentration measurement method includes a step of determining an absorption coefficient of the measurement gas using a reference absorption coefficient determined in association with the reference gas and a correction factor associated with the measurement gas, and a step of obtaining a concentration of the measurement gas flowing in the measurement cell using the absorption coefficient of the measurement gas. When the absorption peak wavelength of the measurement gas is longer than the peak wavelength of the light source, a reference gas having a longer absorption peak wavelength than the peak wavelength of the light source is used, and when the absorption peak wavelength of the measurement gas is shorter than the peak wavelength of the light source, a reference gas having a shorter absorption peak wavelength than the peak wavelength of the light source is used.
