Ammonia is a gas for which reliable analytical methods are available to explain concentration in other gases. To measure ?ow in a 15 inch schedule 40 natural gas pipeline, pure ammonia gas is injected into the pipeline at a constant rate of 72.3 kg/min for 12 minutes. 5 miles downstream from the injection point, the steady-state ammonia concentration is found to be 0.382
weight percent. The gas upstream from the point of ammonia injection contains no measurable ammonia. If the gas is ?owing at 45°C and 1.7 atm (gauge) how many kilograms of natural gas are ?owing by the pipeline per hour?
