2. Standard cubic feet per minute - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_cubic_feet_per_minute

   When positive pressure is applied to a standard cubic foot of gas, it is compressed. When a vacuum is applied to a standard cubic foot of gas, it expands. The volume of gas after it is pressurized or rarefied is referred to as its "actual" volume. SCF and ACF for an ideal gas are related in accordance with the combined gas law: [2] [3]

3. British thermal unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_thermal_unit

   The energy content (high or low heating value) of a volume of natural gas varies with the composition of the natural gas, which means there is no universal conversion factor for energy to volume. 1 cubic foot (28 litres) of average natural gas yields ≈ 1,030 Btu (between 1,010 Btu and 1,070 Btu, depending on quality, when burned)

4. Gas meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_meter

   The volume of gas flow provided by a gas meter is just that, a reading of volume. Gas volume does not take into account the quality of the gas or the amount of heat available when burned. Utility customers are billed according to the heat available in the gas. The quality of the gas is measured and adjusted for in each billing cycle.

5. Therm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therm

   The therm (symbol, thm) is a non-SI unit of heat energy equal to 100,000 British thermal units (BTU), [1] and approximately 105 megajoules, 29.3 kilowatt-hours, 25,200 kilocalories and 25.2 thermies. One therm is the energy content of approximately 100 cubic feet (2.83 cubic metres) of natural gas at standard temperature and pressure .

6. Wobbe index - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wobbe_index

   The Wobbe index is expressed in MJ/Nm³ (where 'Nm³' indicates'm³ in Normal conditions), or sometimes in BTU/scf.In the case of natural gas (molar mass 17 g/mol), the typical heating value is around 39 MJ/Nm³ (1,050 BTU/scf) and the specific gravity is approximately 0.59, giving a typical Wobbe index of 51 MJ/Nm³ (1,367 BTU/scf).

7. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

   Sonar flowmeters have the capacity of measuring the velocity of liquids or gases non-intrusively within the pipe and then leverage this velocity measurement into a flow rate by using the cross-sectional area of the pipe and the line pressure and temperature. The principle behind this flow measurement is the use of underwater acoustics.

9. Heat transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_coefficient

   However, one needs to select if the heat flux is based on the pipe inner or the outer diameter. If the heat flux is based on the inner diameter of the pipe, and if the pipe wall is thin compared to this diameter, the curvature of the wall has a negligible effect on heat transfer. In this case, the pipe wall can be approximated as a flat plane ...
