What is the angle of repose of fuel gas?

The angle of repose of fuel gas refers to a concept more closely associated with the relationship between the maximum probable demand and the maximum possible demand rather than any physical properties of gas flow or combustion safety angles. This concept is important in understanding how a gas system is designed to handle varying demands.

When examining the ratio of maximum probable demand to maximum possible demand, this metric helps engineers calculate the capacity of the gas system required to meet potential usage peaks without exceeding safety standards. It ensures that the system is appropriately sized to deliver gas reliably under different environmental and operational scenarios.

This understanding is crucial for effective gas management and system integrity, ensuring that infrastructure can handle the demands placed on it without risk of failure or inefficiency. Thus, the focus on maximum probable and maximum possible demand illustrates the planning and safety considerations inherent in fuel gas systems.
