sonnie10:I mentioned that for others to know that if your load isn't same as his, the consumption would vary. So that people will not doubt his experiment, I made my comment. |

Good analyses, also you must also consider the pros and cons of each outside of it's price First off, did you measure each based on same load weight. 1) Noise pollution 2) Satefy and maintenance required 3) Availability of the product 3 Likes |

GAZZUZZ: Are you saying one cannot possibly be better than the other once a load is introduced? I would test under both conditions without and with load. There might be other constraints that need to be considered, this is an experiment that should be verified. |

GAZZUZZ: CNG is better interms of the flammability and ignition rate. CNG is considered safer in terms of flammability. It is lighter than air and disperses quickly if released, reducing the risk of fire or explosion. CNG has a narrow flammability range, meaning it requires a specific concentration of gas in the air for combustion to occur. This makes accidental ignition less likely. 12 Likes 3 Shares |

Good you have started with Gas. But t one kg of gas is equivalent to 1.75 litres. So it a way better even though ut consume more |

Lpg are usually odorless and for safety reason it mixed with other gas like butane. The danger here is that if it is pure lng and their is leak the gas would disperse far away from the source, you may not know and an explosion can be triggered by an ignition several meters away. 4 Likes |

This is a big lie a 1 litre of fuel in filling station cannot run for 1hr 40min + on 2.5kva generator the one you measured is total gallon which is way higher than filling station 1 litre. The 1 litre of Mobil or total or lubcon gallon is approx 1.5 litres of filling station so no dey cap. 1 Like |

Pythagoras001:. I am sorry sir you are misguided Th e entire purpose of the exercise is to influence a financial decision So the basis of comparison should be how much gas does it take to run the generator at full capacity for a unit time for example 24 hours Versus How much petrol to achieve the same objective. And A comparison in cost So comparison is neither mass nor volume but. Comparison of financial cost of running with either gas or petrol. A Kg to kg comparison is useful for caloric studies in a physics study. Density does not come into it and is irrelevant This is purely an economic or business study to determine which is the cheaper fuel A good analogy is a diesel engine vehicle versus petrol The motorist is concerned with kilometres per naira It is important to learn how to formulate problems in other people's terms and address what is important to them 56 Likes 4 Shares |
