Abstract
A method is provided for estimating at least one combustion characteristic of a fuel gas belonging to a family of fuel gases, where the at least one characteristic includes at least one of a Wobbe index or a higher heating value. The method includes measuring at least two flow properties of the fuel gas and measuring a dihydrogen content Xcontained in the fuel gas. The method also includes estimating the at least one characteristic using an empirical affine relationship of Here, α, β, and γ are coefficients predetermined for the family of fuel gases, and Y is a variable representative of physical properties of the fuel gas prepared from the measurements of the at least two flow properties of the fuel gas.
