Classification and basic characteristics of city gas
1 Scope
This Standard specifies the classification principles of city gas, the calculation method
of characteristic indicators, the requirements of categories and characteristic indicators,
the test gas of city gas, and the test pressure of test gas of city gas burning appliances.
This Standard applies to the classification of various types of gas used as urban fuel.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this
document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references,
the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
GB/T 11062, Natural gas - Calculation of calorific values, density, relative density
and Wobbe indices from composition
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1 city gas
The public gas that meets the standard gas quality requirements, is supplied for
residential life, commercial (public buildings) and industrial enterprises as fuel for
production.
NOTE: City gas generally includes artificial gas, natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, liquefied
petroleum gas mixed air, dimethyl ether gas, and biogas.
3.2 reference conditions
The dry gas state that the temperature is 15℃ and the absolute pressure is 101.325kPa.
[GB/T 16411-2008, Definition 3.1]
3.3 heating value; calorific value
The heat released by the complete combustion of a specified amount of gas.
NOTE: The heat released, including the latent heat of vaporization of water vapor in the flue gas,
is called high calorific value. The heat released, excluding the latent heat of vaporization of the
water vapor in the flue gas, is called low calorific value.
[Rewrite GB/T 12206-2006, Definition 3.1]
3.4 relative density; specific gravity
The ratio of the mass of a certain volume of dry gas to the mass of the same volume of
dry air at the same temperature and pressure.
NOTE: The relative density is a dimensionless quantity, indicated by the symbol d.
[GB/T 12206-2006, definition 3.5]
3.5 Wobbe number; Wobbe index
The ratio of the calorific value of a gas to the square root of its relative density.
3.6 reference gas
The standard gas representing a certain type of gas.
3.7 limit gas
The standard gas prepared according to the allowable fluctuation range of gas.
4 Classification principle
City gas should be classified according to the type of gas and its characteristic indicator
Wobbe number W. The fluctuation range of Wobbe number W and calorific value H
should be controlled.
5 Calculation method of characteristic indicator
5.1 Heating value
The calorific value can be calculated according to formula (1):
Where,
H - Gas calorific value (high calorific value Hs and low calorific value Hi), in
megajoules per cubic meter (MJ/m3);
Hr - The calorific value of r combustible components in the gas, in megajoules per cubic
Annex A
(normative)
Mass requirements and characteristic values of single gas used for preparing test
gas
A.1 The purity of the single gas used to prepare the test gas should not be lower than
the following values:
a) Nitrogen (N2): 99%;
b) Hydrogen (H2): 99%;
c) Methane (CH4): 95%;
d) Propylene (C3H6): 95%;
e) Propane (C3H8): 95%;
f) Butane (C4H10): 95%;
g) The total content of hydrogen, carbon monoxide and oxygen in the above c), d),
e) and f) should be less than 1%. The total nitrogen and carbon dioxide content
should be less than 2%.
A.2 When the supply of methane is difficult, local natural gas can be used instead. When
the supply of propane, butane and propylene is difficult, liquefied petroleum gas can be
used instead. However, the error between the Wobbe number W of the prepared test gas
and the given value should be within the specified range of ±2%.
A.3 The relative density d and calorific value H of various single gases used for
preparing the test gas should be calculated and determined according to the provisions
of GB/T 11062. Commonly used single gas characteristic value (15℃, 101.325kPa, dry)
should adopt the value specified in Table A.1.
Annex B
(informative)
Preparation method of test gas
B.1 General requirements
B.1.1 The artificial gas should be prepared with raw gas methane, hydrogen and
nitrogen.
B.1.2 Natural gas, mainly composed of methane, should be prepared with methane,
nitrogen, propane or butane.
B.1.3 The tempering limit gas of natural gas should be prepared with methane,
hydrogen, propane or butane.
B.1.4 When used for laboratory sampling inspection and type inspection of gas
appliances, liquefied petroleum gas mixed air should not be used as the test gas source
for natural gas burning appliances.
B.2 Artificial gas
B.2.1 When methane, hydrogen and nitrogen are used as the raw gas for gas distribution,
the two parameters of the control test gas and the reference gas, the Wobbe number and
the burning speed index are equal (same) to obtain the required content of each
component in the test gas. They can be calculated according to formula (B.1), formula
(B.2) and formula (B.3):
Wobbe number of test gas:

Ws,0 - The Wobbe number of the reference gas source to be replaced, in megajoules per
cubic meter (MJ/m3);
