EQUIVALENT TEMPERATURES OF SELECTED GASES
The values given below are for average conditions of unpolluted dry air nearthe earth’s surface but may vary. For example, in some cities the concentrationof the normal pollutants such as nitrous oxide, sulfur dioxide and carbonmonoxide may be over 100 times the values shown. The helium concentrationmay vary considerably from very high levels near oil fields to negligibleconcentrations over the sea. Hydrocarbon concentrations may be much highernear oil fields or refineries.

Flammable Range – The range over which a gas at normal temperature(NTP) forms a flammable mixture with air.
Fractional Distillation – The process of separating the constituents of aliquid by heating the liquid to its boiling point, removing the vaporsthrough a cooling and condensing apparatus, and collecting the con-densed liquid in a separate receiver. This process is commonly used toseparate two or more liquids in a mixture, based on the differences intheir boiling points.
Fluid – A substance which yields readily to any force which tends to alter itsshape. Fluids possess no shape. The term applies to both liquids and gases.
Freezing Point – The temperature at which a liquid and solid are in equilibrium at a given pressure (usually one atmosphere).
Fusion, Latent Heat of – The amount of heat which must be supplied atthe melting point to a unit quantity of a solid in order to transform it into aliquid at the same temperature (usually at standard pressure). Also calledHeat of Fusion.
Gas – An aeriform flied, having neither independent shape nor volume, buttending to expand indefinitely.
Gas Density – Concentration of matter, measured by the mass of a substance per unit volume.
Melting Point – The normal melting point of a solid is the temperature atwhich the solid and the liquid phases of the material are in equilibriumunder a pressure of one atmosphere. It differs from the freezing point onlyfor impure substances.
Liquid – A form a fluid characterized by free movement of constituentmolecules among themselves, but without the tendency to separate.
Molecular Weight – The sum of the atomic weights of all the constituentatoms in the molecule of an element or compound.
Normal Boiling Point – The temperature at which the vapor pressure of aliquid reaches 760 mm of mercury.
61
Absolute Zero – A hypothetical temperature characterized by complete absenceof heat and equivalent to -459.69 °F or -273.16 °C.
Absorption – The penetration of a liquid or gas into the inner structure of a liquid.
Adiabatic Process – A process carried out in such a way that no heat isabsorbed or evolved by the system.
Adsorption – The adherence of gas or liquid molecules to the surface of another substance, called the adsorbent. (Usually a solid.)
Boiling Point – The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a pure liquid isequal to the surrounding atmospheric pressure.
CGA – Denotes the Compressed Gas Association.
Combustion, Heat of – The total amount of heat evolved when a definite quantity of a substance is completely burned (oxidized).
Critical Pressure – The pressure which is just sufficient to cause the appearanceof two phases at the critical temperature. It is the vapor pressure of a liquid atthe critical temperature.
Critical Temperature – The temperature above which a gas cannot be liquefiedby pressure alone. At this temperature, there is no distinction between liquid andvapor, both having the same density and constituting one homogeneous system.
Critical Volume – The volume occupied by unit mass of a substance at the critical temperature and pressure.
Cryogenic – Refers to the field of low temperatures, usually -200 °F or below.
Density – The ratio of the weight of a substance per unit volume; e.g. mass of a solid, liquid or gas per unit volume at a specific temperature.
Dew Point – The temperature and pressure at which the liquefaction of a vaporbegins. The term is usually applied to condensation of moisture from the watervapor in the atmosphere.
Expansion, Coefficient of – The ratio of the increase in length (linear coefficient),area (superficial), or volume (cubical) of a body for a given rise in temperature(usually from 0 °C to 1 °C) to the original length, area of volume, respectively.These three coefficients are approximately in the ratio of 1:2:3.

Specific Volume – Volume occupied by a unit mass of a substance at agiven temperature.
Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) – An internationally acceptedreference base. Standard temperature is 0 °C. Standard pressure is oneatmosphere, or 14.6960 psia.
Sublimation – The process of a substance passing from the solid state to thegaseous state directly without an intermediate liquid state.
Superconductivity – Disappearance of electrical resistance in a metal attemperatures near absolute zero.
Thermal Conductivity – The quantity of heat passing in unit time through aplate of unit area and unit thickness, with a temperature differential of onedegree between the faces of the plate.
Triple Point – The definite temperature and pressure for a pure substance atwhich the three phases—solid, liquid and vapor—coexist in equilibrium asan invariant system.
Vapor Density – The weight of vapor per unit volume at any stated temperature and pressure.
Vapor Pressure – The pressure exerted by a vapor when a state of equilibriumhas been reached between a liquid, solid or solution and its vapor. When thevapor pressure of a liquid exceeds that of the confining atmosphere, the liquid is commonly said to be boiling.
Vaporization, Heat of – The quantity of heat required to convert a unit quantityof a liquid at a definite temperature to vapor at the same temperature.
Viscosity – The resistance offered by a fluid (liquid or gas) to flow. The viscosity is a characteristic property and is a measure of the combinedeffects of adhesion and cohesion.
63
Normal Temperature and Pressure (NTP) – A gas industry reference base.Normal temperature is 70 °F. Normal pressure is 14.6960 psia.
Partial Pressure (Dalton’s Law) – In any mixture of gases, the total pres-sure is equal to the sum of the pressures each gas would exert were it alonein the volume occupied by the mixture; i.e., the total pressure is equal to thesum of partial pressures of the individual gases.
ppm – The abbreviation for parts per million, a convenient means to expressvery low concentrations of a substance in a mixture, or as a low level contaminant in a pure product.
Pressure Drop (Friction Loss) – The pressure lost by fluids flowing in apipeline. Pressure drop is a function of mass flow, viscosity, condition of pipewall, fluid density and inside pipe diameter of orifice conditions. It is usuallyexpressed pressure drop (psi) per equivalent length (feet) of pipe.
psia – The abbreviation for pounds per square inch absolute. One atmosphere equals 14.696 psia; psia = psig + 14.696.
psig – The abbreviation for pounds per square inch gauge. Gauge pressurealways ignores the first atmosphere absolute (14.696 psia).
Pyrophoric - The ability of a chemical to ignite spontaneously in air at orbelow 130 °F (54.4 °C).
Rare Gas – Refers to those constituents of air which comprise less than onepercent of air and are generally considered inert: argon, helium, krypton,neon and xenon. These gases are also called noble gases.
Specific Gravity – The ratio of the weight of any volume to the weight of anyequal volume of some other substance taken as the standard at stated temperatures. The standard is usually water for solids and liquids, and air orhydrogen for gases.
Specific Heat – The amount of heat required to raise a unit of mass of a substance one degree of temperature at either constant pressure or constant volume.
