11、 that do not require definition 33 Alphabetical index 34 Publications referred to Inside back coverBS1179-6:1980 ii BSI 06-1999 Foreword This glossary, first published in 1944 at the request of the Institution of Gas Engineers, was revised and extended in 1961 and 1967 in order to incorporate new te
12、rms and modified definitions, including those originally introduced in British Standard codes of practice. It has now been further revised to take account of developments in technology, particularly those arising from the general introduction and distribution of natural gas. Note has also been taken
13、 of the interpretations of certain terms included in the Gas Safety Regulations 1972, but it should be remembered that the definitions given in this glossary have currency in a wider field than that covered by the Regulations. The glossary deals primarily with technical terms special to the gas indu
14、stry and is divided into the following Parts corresponding to the fields in which the terms are used: Part 1: General 1) ; Part 2: Natural gas production 1) ; Part 3: Carbonization and gasification 1) ; Part 4: Transmission, distribution and storage 1) ; Part 5: Measurement and regulation 1) ; Part
15、6: Combustion and utilization including installation at consumers premises. In each section of the glossary, terms are arranged in a logical order: general terms occur before terms relating to specialized features, and an attempt has been made to bring together groups of terms indicating subdivision
16、s of a particular aspect, or terms whose interpretation can best be understood in comparison with one another. For convenience of reference each definition has been assigned a number which begins with the digit denoting the particular Part of the glossary. For example, all definitions in Part 6 have
17、 6 as the first digit of their number. The next two digits refer to the appropriate section and subsection (if any) of this Part and the final two digits indicate the position in sequence within the appropriate subsection. For example, in Part 6, 6 3407 indicates the seventh definition in subsection
18、 6.3.4. Expressions that, though commonly used in the gas industry, have the same meaning there as in their ordinary usage, have generally been excluded. However, it is important to avoid confusion when designating gas appliance parts and a preferred nomenclature for these is desirable, even though
19、the terms may be in common usage. A separate subsection of this Part has accordingly been devoted to appliance parts, and the terms listed should be used in all communications relating to appliance parts. The arrangement of this subsection(6.8) follows closely that of the subsection 6.3 in which the
20、 appliances themselves and their functions are defined. Preferred terms that have obvious meanings have been excluded from the glossary and, instead, they are listed alphabetically in Appendix A. Some terms are used with different meanings in different branches of the gas industry and the definition
21、s in this Part are not necessarily applicable in other branches. Different definitions appropriate to another branch of the industry may accordingly appear in other Parts of this glossary. The definitions have, however, been so drafted as to embrace minor regional variations and to accommodate fores
22、eeable changes in design and technique. Where a substantial group of terms has already been defined in relation to other industries, reference has been included to the relevant British Standard glossary in order to avoid unnecessary duplication. 1) In course of preparation.BS1179-6:1980 BSI 06-1999
23、iii In some cases, several terms correspond to each definition; those which it is considered should be given preference are shown in bold type; others less favoured are shown in italics while those which, it is hoped, will fall into disuse, are shown in medium roman type and marked “deprecated”. For
24、 gas appliance parts it is particularly desirable that only the preferred term should be used. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does
25、not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.
