Gross Heating Value definition

Gross Heating Value means the total heat expressed in megajoules per cubic metre (MJ/m³) produced by the complete combustion at constant pressure of one (1) cubic metre of gas with air, with the gas free of water vapour and the temperature of the gas, air and products of combustion at standard temperature and all water formed by the combustion reaction condensed to the liquid state;

Gross Heating Value means the number of megajoules obtained from the combustion of a cubic metre of gas at a temperature of fifteen degrees Celsius (15ºC), with the Gas free of water vapour, and at a pressure of 101.325 kPa absolute and with the products of combustion cooled to the initial temperature of the Gas and the water formed by the combustion condensed to the liquid state;

Gross Heating Value means the energy produced by the complete combustion of one Cubic Metre of Gas with air, at Standard Conditions, the product of combustion cooled to a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and the water vapour formed by the combustion condensed to a liquid state.

Examples of Gross Heating Value in a sentence

• The Gross Heating Value of the Gas shall be corrected for water vapor content in accordance with GPA 181 and 2172.

• For Gas, the product of (i) a volume of Gas in Cubic Feet and (ii) the Gross Heating Value of such Gas, as expressed in MMBtus.

• The component analysis and Gross Heating Value of the Gas shall be determined and calculated at least semi-annually by whomever is operating the CTM equipment, as determined in Section D.4, but either party may conduct such analysis at its discretion and cost.

• The Parties shall co-operate in the design, selection and acquisition of devices to be used for measurements and tests in order that all measurements and tests may be conducted in the SI system of units, except for the quantity delivered which is expressed in MMBtu, the Gross Heating Value (volume based) which is expressed in Btu/SCF and the pressure which is expressed in millibar and temperature in Celsius.

Gross Heating Value means the total MJ obtained by complete combustion of one cubic metre of gas with air, the gas to be free of all water vapour and the gas, air and products of combustion to be at standard conditions of fifteen (15) degrees Celsius and one hundred one and three hundred twenty-five thousandths (101.325) kiloPascals (absolute) and all water vapour formed by the combustion reaction condensed to the liquid state.

Gross Heating Value or “GHV” means the number of kilocalories evolved by the complete combustion of one (1) Standard Cubic Metre of Gas with air at Standard Temperature and Pressure and all the water formed by combustion reaction has condensed to liquid and has released its latent heat.

Gross Heating Value means the number of Btus produced by the combustion, on a dry basis and at a constant pressure, of the amount of Gas which would occupy a volume of 1 cubic foot at a temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit and at a pressure of 14.73 Psia, with air of the same temperature and pressure as the Gas, when the products of combustion are cooled to the initial temperature of the Gas and air and when the water formed by combustion is condensed to the liquid state. Hydrogen sulfide shall be deemed to have no heating value.

Gross Heating Value means the total Joules obtained by complete combustion at constant pressure of one cubic metre of gas with air, the gas to be free of all water vapour and the temperature of the gas, air and products of combustion to be at standard temperature and all water formed by the combustion reaction to be condensed to the liquid state.

Gross Heating Value means the total megajoules obtained by the complete combustion of one cubic metre of gas and air under conditions where the combustion reaction is at a constant absolute pressure of 101.325 kPa; the gas is free of all water vapour; the gas, the air, and the products of combustion are at a temperature of 15 degrees Celsius; and water formed by the combustion reaction is condensed to a liquid state.

Gross Heating Value means the number of Btus produced by the complete combustion in air, at constant pressure of one (1) cubic foot of Gas, at a base temperature of sixty degrees Fahrenheit (60°F) and at a reference pressure base equal to 14.73 psia, with air of the temperature and pressure of the Gas, after the products of combustion are cooled to the initial temperature of the Gas, and after the air and water formed by the combustion is condensed to the liquid state. The gross heating value of the Gas shall be corrected for water vapor under testing conditions to the actual water vapor content of the Gas being delivered; provided, however, if the actual water vapor content is seven (7) pounds per 1,000,000 standard cubic feet of Gas or less, the Gas shall be deemed “dry” and no water vapor correction shall be made.
