The study of structural fields of daily gas consumption of the balance groups of the regional gas supply system

Abstract

The study of the balance sheet structure of the regional gas supply system is necessary to solve a number of operational tasks. An information database has been created for conducting research. It includes information on daily gas consumption and the actual average daily outdoor temperature for a six-year period for more than 539 elements of the balance structure of the regional gas supply system. The most significant factors determining gas consumption were identified for 7 enlarged balance groups. It´s investigated the dynamics of factors in time. The article presents the types of daily fields “gas flow – average daily outdoor temperature” for enlarged groups of the balance structure of the regional gas supply system. Four temperature areas were identified and substantiated in the daily fields. The assessment of qualitative and quantitative indicators characterizing the temperature areas is presented in the article.
