Estimating max hour from annual usage
• Restaurant’s Annual usage = 2,000 Mcf
• Average load factor for a restaurant ≈ .53
• LF = annual use/(365x24x max hr)
• Max hr = annual use /(365x24x0.53)
• Max hr = 2,000 Mcf /(365x24x0.53)
• Max hr = 0.431 Mcfh = 431 scfh

Estimating use for a building (other than a Home)
• 40 BTU/ft2
– Typical ceilings
– Thermostat set at 68°F to 70°F
• Higher ceilings slightly > 40 BTU/ft2
• Lower for warehouse temperature set at 50°F

Gas Flow & Pipe Sizing
Gas Flow
If your pipeline is moving 40 Mcfh starting at a pressure of 50 psig and delivering at a pressure of 25 psig, how much additional capacity remains on this segment of pipe?

Problem:
• At a temperature of 15 degrees F, a pressure of 30 psig is recorded at the end of a 75 psig system.
• What pressure would you expect at a design temperature of 5 degrees F?
(hint: think of % capacity as directly corresponding to demand or flow)

Problem solution •

75= 40%
• From chart, utilizing 85% of pipeline capacity
• Think of % capacity as demand which is proportional to degree days or degree hours.

Same Problem:
• Only this time a pressure of 40 psig is recorded at the end of a 75 psig system when the temperature is 15°F.
• What pressure would you expect at a design temperature of 5 degrees F?
(again: think of % capacity as directly corresponding to demand or flow)

• X = 93.6%
• From chart, 93.6% capacity equates to 𝑃2
𝑃1 = 25%
• P2 = (P1 * 25%) = (75 psig * 25%) = 18.75 psig

Modeling Considerations • Station pressures (drop across M&R Settings) • Load Estimating • Pipe Type & Length
– Plastic or Steel – Wall thickness
• Pipe Efficiency Factor – Typically use 0.90-0.95 efficiency factor for distribution system
using IGT Improved Equation
• Fittings • Regulators • Compressors • Valves
38
• Flow Equations
– Spitzglass (Low Pressure) • Low pressures (inches of water column) • 12” and smaller • Assumes smooth pipe flow
– Spitzglass (High Pressure) • Medium and high pressures • Very conservative
– IGT Improved • Very good distribution equation • 3”-30” Low Pressure • 1 ½” – 20” (2-100 psig)
– Weymouth • Use for early evaluation • Very Conservative • Good for high pressure supply lines 10” – 30” rough pipe
– Panhandle A • Good for ≥ 16” and ≥20 psig • Better for high pressure lines • Relatively good equation but is slightly optimistic
– Mueller • Services • 3
8 ” – 2” (2-100 psig)
