The Methane Number is a measure of the resistance of natural gas to detonation when it is burned as a motor fuel in an engine. Pure Methane is assigned a Methane Number of 100 and pure Hydrogen is assigned a Methane Number of zero. A natural gas having a Methane Number of 80 for example, would have the detonation properties of a mixture consisting of 80 vol% Methane and 20 vol% Hydrogen. The Methane Number concept is similar to the Octane Number for gasoline. Unlike gasoline however, there is not yet a universal standard for testing natural gas Methane Number as there is in the motor test for gasoline. Also, there is no universally accepted method for calculating the Methane Number based on the composition of natural gas.
