We are using a 25,000 gallon tank of liquid propane. Our "worst case" usage will be 12,500,000 BTU/hr. This tank is located in Mexico at the south Texas border. Will we need a vaporizing system, or will we have enough natural evaporation to fulfill our worst case needs? We plan to pressurize our 'in plant' piping to 15 P.S.I..

Vaporization rate of liquid propane

Dear Sir,
Propane is a gas at ambient conditions ,so there is no doubt
you will get propane vapor..
The question is how much which can easily be calculated if you furnish the following:
1. Initial propane pressure at the source storage tank,after the regulating valve.
2.The size and length of pipeline.
