Gas composition and quality for transmission

The dataset contains the hourly unvalidated gas composition and other gas quality parameters for the Danish Transmission as measured at Energinet’s gas quality measuring station in Egtved.

The values listed are for informational purposes only and are not suited for settlement purposes. Though Energinet consider the numbers to be true, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of the values. Energinet has neither verified nor approved the information.

The information can be auto validated by the user with the validation rules written for each factor in Meta Data.

Comment	Please note that the format shown in the example applies to data download as JSON, XML or fetched through the API and is in accordance with the ISO 8601 standard. The format is slightly different when it is shown on screen or downloaded manually as CSV or XLSX. This is mainly due to readability and consideration for Excel users. In preview (in the GUI) all timestamps are shown as (display convention) YYYY-MM-DD hh:mmZ e.g. 2017-07-14 08:00Z. The Z will remind viewers that this is UTC. In download (CSV and XLSX) the date time are exported as YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm e.g. 2017-07-14 08:00. That is without the \u201cT\u201d and the \u201cZ\u201d and the seconds. Excel will recognize it as date-time. The user must remember the convention about time zones. In download (JSON and XML) the full format is used YYYY-MM-DDThh:mmZ e.g. 2017-07-14T08:00Z.
Description	A date and time (interval), shown in UTC time zone, where the values are valid. 00:00 o\u2019clock is the first hour of a given day interval 00:00 - 00:59 and 01:00 covers the second hour (interval) of the day and so forth. Please note: The naming is based on the length of the interval of the finest grain of the resolution.

Gross Calorific Value

Comment
Description	A term describing the amount of heat developed by combustion of one cubic metre of gas at constant pressure when the gas and air for the combustion have a temperature of 25\u00b0C, the combustion products being brought to that temperature and the water formed by the combustion being present in liquid state. The reference conditions for normal cubic metres are 0\u00b0C and 1 atm.

Net Calorific Value

Comment
Description	A term describing the amount of heat generated, when the tem-perature of the combustion air and the natural gas prior to com-bustion is 25\u00b0C, when the combustion products (flue gas) are cooled to 25\u00b0C, and when the water produced during combustion is present in the form of steam. The reference conditions for normal cubic metres are 0\u00b0C and 1 atm.

Wobbe Index

Comment
Description	The Wobbe index offers information about the heating effect a burner is exposed to during combustion of a fuel. The greater the Wobbe index, the greater the heating effect and thereby the greater the load on the burner. The load on a burner is thus directly proportional to the Wobbe index. Different gases with the same Wobbe index will impose the same load on the burner.
