Abstract: Anyone who has vaporized and mixed Propane/Air for either Peak Shaving or day-to-day operations in distribution realizes that there is an art to finding and maintaining the proper mixture of Propane Vapor, Process Air and Natural Gas to make the resulting mixture roughly equivalent to Natural Gas. Adjustments are required to be made almost constantly to ensure that the final mixture of the gas leaving the facility is capable of being burned in most if not all appliances safely and efficiently without yellow tipping, lifting or flashbacks. It can be exhausting to constantly monitor and adjust the flows to come up with just the right mixture. In most Propane/Air Facilities, there is a burner connected to the plant outlet gas line that is constantly on while vaporizing and mixing the gases. In most cases, the operators spend a lot of time watching that burner to see if they are making the proper mixture of gases.
