LIQUIFIED PETROLEUM GAS DESIGN CALCULATION:
I. DESIGN REFERENCES:
1. NFPA STANDARD 54 – DESIGN AND INSTALLATION OF GAS FUEL SYSTEM
2. NFPA STANDARD 58 – STORAGE AND HANDLING OF LIQUIFIED PETROLEUM GAS.
3. ANSI – B31.8 – 1968 & ANSI – B31.8b – 1969 - INSTALLATION OF GAS SERVICE PIPING.
FORMULA: (AS PER NFPA 54-1988)
Q = 2313d2.623 (∆P/CL) 0.541
d = ( (Q(CL) 0.541)/(2313(∆P) 0.541)) 0.38
WHERE:
Q = GAS FLOW, FT3/HR
C = VISCOSITY FACTOR
= 0.00354(t+460)S0.848U0.152
t = TEMPERATURE OF GAS
S = RATIO OF DENSITY OF GAS TO DENSITY OF AIR AT 60°F AND 30 in Hg.
L = EQUIVALENT LENGTH OF PIPE, FT
U = VISCOSITY OF LPG GAS WHICH IS 0.6
∆P = ALLOWABLE PRESSURE DROP, [Link]
GIVEN:
COOKING STOVE HEAT INPUT: 66,000 BTU/HR
4 NOS. BURNER STOVE HEAT INPUT: 65,000 BTU/HR
SIINGLE BURNER GAS STOVE HEAT INPUT: 12,000 BTU/HR
LPG GAS DENSITY: 2,750 BTU/FT3
DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT
1. LAMP COOKING STOVE = 7 NOS. X 66,000 = 462,000 BTU/HR
2. BOILER PAN STOVE = 6 NOS. X 60,000 = 360,000 BTU/HR
3. SINGLE STOVE = 16 NOS. X 12,000 = 192,000 BTU/HR
4. 4 BURNER STOVE = 5 NOS. X 65,000 = 260,000 BTU/HR
5. COOKING STOVE = 3 NOS. X 60,000 = 180,000 BTU/HR
6. 4 BURNER STOVE = 4 NOS. X 65,000 = 260,000 BTU/HR
TOTAL HEAT INPUT = 2,002,000 BTU/HR
Q = HEAT INPUT/GAS HEATING VALUE
Q = GAS FLOW, FT3/HR
GAS HEATING VALUE = 2,750 BTU/ FT3
HEAT VALUE = BTU/HR
Q = (2,002,000 BTU/HR)/(2750 BTU/ FT3)
Q = 728 FT3/HR (THIS IS THE SYSTEM GAS DEMAND)
: THE 4500 LITERS LPG TANK WITH 2000 KGS. CAPACITY HAS TAKE-OFF RATE OF 10.19 M 3/HR AS PER
SPECIFICATION.
Q = 728 FT3/HR (20.62 M3/HR)
= (20.62 M3/HR)/(10.19 M3/HR)
= 2 NOS. OF 4500 LITERS LPG TANK OR 2000 KGS. OF LPG CAPACITY
: SINCE AS PER PRACTICE, THE USAGE OF GAS IS 50% OF THE MAXIMUM REQUIREMENT. THEREFORE,
ONE 4500 LITERS OR 2000 KGS. OF LPG TANK IS REQUIRED.
