GAS CONSUMPTION'S CALCULATION
In every Industries Boiler, and Generator are an essential utility machinery. Due to low price of Natural Gas (NG) the industrialists want to use Natural Gas in Boiler and Generator as their primary fuel. The consumption cost of this Natural Gas (NG) is a very focusing issue to the industrialists. They always aware of the total cost involvement for the consumption's of fuel for operating Boiler and Generator.
So, Engineers responsible for utility management are also concern about the Gas consumption's of these utilities. It is known that boiler is required for producing steam and steam is one of the vital things in manufacturing and process industries. The steam distributing system required many components like pipes, fittings, valves, traps, regulating valves, and many more things. Right materials and proper planing of designing a quality steam distributing system will minimize the cost of producing steam. But do you know How to calculate your Boiler and Gas Generator Gas Consumption?
Calculation Methodology for GAS consumption's in Boiler:
To calculate the boiler Gas Consumption we need some idea about Boiler Horse Power (BHP), British Thermal Unit (BTU) , ton /per hour to lbs/per hour conversion and the present volumetric (cubic meter) price of natural gas. If you know the conversion's factor of the tph to lbs/hr , BHP to BTU/hr, btu to cft (NG) then it will be easy to calculate the actual costing of the Natural gas consumption's of your Boiler ( 100 percent efficiency consideration).
Calculation Methodology for GAS consumption's in Generator :
To calculate the Generator Gas consumption's the conversion factor of KW to W , j/sec to BTU/sec, BTU to cft (for Natural gas) is required. If you get to know all these conversion factor then it will be very easy to calculate the Gas consumption's of your generator.
In Bangladesh gas price is different for captive power and utility power.
