Cylinder Care and Maintenance Handbook
Four types of compressed natural gas (CNG) cylinders currently in use in natural gas vehicles (NGVs) are described, and applicable CNG cylinder standards and other regulations are explained.$295.00 -
Reference Guide for Integration of Natural Gas Vehicle Fuel Systems
The compilation of information in this Reference Guide provides a foundation for understanding natural gas vehicle (NGV) fuel systems, and the interaction of the individual fuel system components. The on-board NGV fuel system is defined as the assemblage of all of the fuel components and subsystems that accept and store natural gas fuel from an off-board dispenser and deliver it to the vehicle’s engine.$295.00 -
Evaluation of Mitigation Methods for Accidental LNG Releases. Volume 5: Using FEM3A for LNG Accident Consequence Analyses
As part of the work addressing a need for procedures to validate modeling methods proposed for definition of potential (flammable vapor cloud) hazard zones surrounding LNG storage sites, and to predict the effects on the dispersion of the presence of significant terrain features and of plant structures, this volume is a manual for using the mathematical model for LNG accident analyses..$295.00 -
Variability of Natural Gas Composition in Select Major Metropolitan Areas of the United States
Over 6800 gas analyses were obtained from 26 major urban areas located in 19 states and each of the major geographical regions of the U.S. A study of peakshaving practices indicated that the composition of send-out gases can be significantly affected by the addition of propane-air mixtures or vaporized liquefied natural gas.$295.00 -
Blueprint for Urban Sustainability: Integrating Sustainable Energy Practices into Metropolitan Planning; With Expanded Sections on Distributed Energy Resources
This report is a guide designed to help cities develop sustainable energy plans that will enable communities to meet their present energy needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. The report is based on the results of a national contest among seven forward-thinking cities to see which of them offered the best sustainable energy programs and plans.$295.00 -
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Cylinders: Tips for General Visual Inspection and Care
This report and the accompanying poster (GRI-96/0426.1) comprise a training tool for technicians and other personnel and users involved in the operation of natural gas vehicles (NGV), designed to help in the use and care of NGV gas storage cylinders.$295.00 -
Energizing Sustainable Cities--The Power of Planning & Design
This 17-minute DVD, narrated by Bill Kurtis, introduces a vision for sustainable urban design as well as a plan and tools for how to get there. Developed in connection with the U.S. entry to the International Competition for Sustainable Urban System Design, the holistic design for the San Diego-Tijuana Binational Region is a comprehensive regional approach to sustainability that integrates all urban infrastructure technologies with energy efficient and ecologically sound land use development.$295.00 -
Model for Sustainable Urban Design; With Expanded Sections on Distributed Energy Resources
This report describes a model to guide the design of new urban development and redevelopment that will significantly reduce urban energy consumption and enable all American cities to become more sustainable communities. The report also describes the types of technologies that will be needed to achieve the modeled sustainability.$295.00 -
Accelerated Testing of Flame Ionization Sensor Contamination in Residential Furnaces: Phase I
One to two percent of residential furnaces require warranty repairs due to low flame ionization current causing system lockout even though a flame is present. The cause of the reduced flame ionization detector (FID) current output was traced to deposition of an insulating silicon oxide compound onto the flame sensor rod and burner surfaces.$295.00 -
Risk Communication for the Natural Gas Industry
Information contained in this manual comes from a review of the risk perception and risk communication literature, from consultations with experts, and from the professional experience of the authors in applying risk communication programs in the utility industry. The manual provides an overview of risk communication.$295.00 -
Weathering of LNG in On-Board Storage Tanks
The objective of this research was to verify the analytical weathering model developed under a previous project. Several different compositions of charged LNG were weathered in a specially designed and instrumented facility until the remaining LNG liquid in the tank reached levels of methane concentration below 50 percent.$295.00 -
Validation Testing of a Gravimetric Method to Measure CNG Compressor Oil Carryover
The new method was found to be a valid alternative under certain conditions. It can be used when there is no need to differentiate between the liquid (aerosol) and vapor phases of the measured oil carryover.$295.00
