4.8.1 Gas Line Sizing Tables for NATURAL GAS
For your convenience see below for an excerpt from gas line sizing tables
for a single NG appliance. For details see the current NFPA 54.
Specified pipe lengths are for one C 1210 ES or ESC which have a
maximum input rating of 225,000 BTUs. The gas supply system must be
sized for the combined total maximum BTU/hr load requirements of all
gas appliances running simultaneously.
The tables below show the maximum capacity of the gas supply pipe in
cubic feet per hour. Please contact your local gas supplier for the energy
content of the gas to determine the BTU/hr capacity. Use 1,000 BTU/
cubic foot for rough estimations.
Maximum pipe capacity in cubic feet of Natural Gas per hour for gas
pressures of 14" W.C. (0.5 psig or 25 mbar) or less and a pressure drop
of 0.3” W.C. (0.75mbar) based on 0.60 specific gravity gas).
Maximum pipe capacity in cubic feet of Natural Gas per hour for gas
pressures of <2.0 psig (55" WC or 138 mbar) and a pressure drop of
3.0” W.C. (7.5mbar) based on 0.60 specific gravity gas).
Maximum pipe capacity in cubic feet of Natural Gas per hour for gas
pressures of 14" W.C. (0.5 psig or 25 mbar) or less and a pressure drop
of 0.5” W.C. (1.25mbar) based on 0.60 specific gravity gas).
* EHD = Equivalent Hydraulic Diameter. The greater the value of EHD, the
greater the gas capacity of the tubing.
