Thanks Pablo; as this gas is for use in IC engines, we're interested in the LHV, but I assume we will be able to get both once the gas analysis is completed.
The gas isn't being supplied; we are generating our own low-BTU gas from municipal solid waste and we wish to determine the actual energy...
We have the volumetric capacity and speed of the engine to calculate flowrate; as for engine efficiency, a standard assumption for efficiency would be sufficient for this calculation.
We are doing a compositional analysis, but for the time being we would like to have a rough estimate of the...
I'd like to know how to calculate the energy content in BTU/cubic feet of a gas if we are burning it in an engine to produce a known output of power (13 kW) at 1400 rpm.
I am looking for the maximum allowable shaft deflection under API 610 7th Edition. I understand that this is given for the shaft at the impeller, as opposed to 8th Edition which states a maximum deflection of 0.002 in. at the mechanical seals.
