1. What is the flow standard for natural gas pipelines?
There is no fixed standard value for the flow of natural gas pipelines, and it needs to be calculated based on pipeline cracking parameters and gas demand. The following are specific calculation methods and typical scenario values.
1. The general calculation formula adopts the internationally commonly used formula (unit: British system):$ q = 3550 \times [\frac{d^5}{(1 + \frac{3.6}{d} + 0.03 \times d)}]^{\frac{1}{2}} \times (\frac{h}{L \times SG})^{\frac{1}{2}}$ •q: Volume flow rate (CFH, cubic feet per hour) • d: Diameter of the collapsed pipeline (inches) • h: Pressure drop (inches of water column) • L: Pipeline length (feet) • Absolute SG: Gas specific gravity (0.60 for natural gas) 2 The calculation of urban gas pipeline flow is based on the maximum hourly gas consumption of the calculation month (unit: metric): $Q_ {h}=\ frac {Q_ {a} {n} \ times K0 {m} \ times K0 {d} \ times K0 {h} $• Qh: hourly flow (m ³/h) • Qa: annual gas consumption (m ³/a) • n: annual maximum load utilization hours (usually 2920-5840h) • Km: monthly peak coefficient (1.1-1.3) • Kd: daily peak coefficient (1.05-1.2) • Kh: hourly peak coefficient (2.5-3.2) 3 The calculation of residential user flow adopts the simultaneous working coefficient method (unit: metric): $Q_ {h}=\ um K N Q_ {n} $• K: simultaneous working coefficient of gas appliances (determined by looking up the table) • N: number of similar gas appliances • Qn: rated flow rate of a single gas appliance (m ³/h) 4.
