GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

(Continued)

8. NATURAL GAS QUALITY (Continued)

(j) (v) c. Gas Heating Value, HV

HV = SUM [ (HHV(i) * (14.73/14.696) * x(i)) ] / Z

d. Gas Molecular Weight, MW

MW = SUM [ MW(i) * x(i) ]

e. Gas Specific Gravity, D

D = ( MW * 0.99949 ) / (Z * 28.9625)

f. Air Theoretically Required for Complete Combustion, A

A = SUM [ ST(i) * x(i) ] / 0.2095

g. Primary Air Factor, f

f = 1000 * SQRT (D) / HV

h. Air Theoretically Required for Complete Combustion per 100 Btu, a

a = A * 100 / HV

i. Ratio of the Number of Hydrogen Atoms in All Forms to the Number of

Carbon Atoms in Hydrocarbons, R

R = SUM [ H(i) * x(i) ] / SUM [ (C(i) * x(i) ]

j. Primary Aeration Index, JA

JA = [ { A(s) / A } * SQRT { D / D(s) } ]

No Subscript = adjustment gas

s = substitute gas

k. Mole Fraction of Oxygen in the Gas, Q

Q = x(i) for i = 9

l. Number of Carbon Atoms Easily Liberated by Combustion of 100 Molecules of

Gas, N

N = SUM [ ( C(i) - 1 ) * x(i) ] * 100 for i = 2 to 7

m. Weaver Flame Speed Factor, S

S = SUM [ ( x(i) * FS(i) ) ] / ( A + ( 5 * VI ) - ( 18.8 * Q ) + 1)

where: x(i) = Volumetric Fraction of Combustible Constituent of

Fuel Gas, for i = 1 to 7

FS(i) = Weaver Flame Speed Constant, for i = 1 to 7

n. Volumetric Fraction of Inert Gases (Nitrogen and Carbon

Dioxide), VI

VI = SUM [ x(i) ] for i = 8 and 10
