LNGauge An application for calculating LNG holding time,energy content and Methane Number All you need to know about LNG behaviour when LNG is used as fuel(PPT)

摘要

LNG is shaping into a competitive alternative fuel for heavy-duty trucks and ships,thanks to its reduced environmental footprint compared to diesel and heavy fuel oil respectively.However,LNG's cryogenic nature entails a completely different thermodynamic behavior than traditional oil-based fuels.ENGIE Lab CRIGEN developed the LNGauge software application to provide crucial data on LNG-fueled trucks and vessels at minimum cost and using only a few sensors.LNGgauge evaluates in real time and accurately calculates holding time,energy content and Methane Number inside an LNG storage tank.It can also be adapted to predict LNG composition.
