Thanks for this information OP.
I'm guilty of this, I do this almost every day.
Each time I want to cook I must shake my cylinder to know the level of my gas.
But not anymore, thanks to you!

Okay, shaking has become a pattern since I was in sec till today. Okay now I will be using cold water thanks. Even roadside refillers shakes the cylinders like palm wine during refilling time. But for your discovery madu ga eke nkucha maka nkucha abulo ujo. Enjoy ur day guys


Hahaha.

i hope thats what you are looking for

He was pulling it out of his ass. It doesn't make it a true, scentific, empirical evidence. Plus it was not even coherent. Talking about pressure then moved to damaged burner, lol.

How does shaking make someone know how much gas is left?...can a shaker explain?
...and why would water on the outside show gas level?....unused gas settles at the bottom? Such ignorance and people are thanking Op for the advice.
What is dangerous is having a faulty/leaky cylinder head.

I am not understanding even when u go to refill locally they still shake then allow atmospheric pressure,they repeat the process through out the refilling.
Re: Don't Shake A Gas Cylinder To Know The Level Of Its Content. Its Dangerous(pics) by Galaxydon1(m): 11:08am On May 10, 2018
so the truck that conveys it doesn't shake while on the road. even the still shake it after refilling it. it doesn't have any effect bro
Re: Don't Shake A Gas Cylinder To Know The Level Of Its Content. Its Dangerous(pics) by onyxo76(m): 11:16am On May 10, 2018
na lie. Gas cylinders burst at over 100 bars. no shaking can get to that pressure. the working pressure is even less than 5 bars �

but road side gas refillers shake it when refilling how come there has never been any incidence of such, I am even a road side refilers for over 2 years now

It a very dangerous thing to do. Shaking gets the content more agitated. It can lead to an explosion.Please buy a gauge and use.
Re: Don't Shake A Gas Cylinder To Know The Level Of Its Content. Its Dangerous(pics) by jaytime(m): 11:27am On May 10, 2018
But those guys that fill gas cylinders always turn their own longer cylinders upside down and shake them to release gas to customers' cylinders.
Anyway, noted!
Re: Don't Shake A Gas Cylinder To Know The Level Of Its Content. Its Dangerous(pics) by chiochio1(m): 11:30am On May 10, 2018
Thank you , any time that i'm broke i shake the gas more than 5 times a day


marvelck:
You don't have to shake the gas cylinder to know the level of its content.
Just wet a side of the cylinder with water. After a while, the used top part will be dry and the lower part with gas will remain wet. The wet portion tells you the amount of gas left. Most times we shake our gas cylinders to check if it is finished or not. That is a very dangerous thing to do. It could be suicidal.
Kindly share with friends and family

hapydaddy:
The molecules of the gas can gain more kinetic energy when u shake it as the molecules collides with each other and also the wall of the gas container ( kinetic theory of gases) and this will lead to increase in pressure ( pressure and volume are inversely proportional: Boyles law). Any slight alterations could Lead to a massive explosion most especially if u have a damaged burner.

You started your theory very well but now messed it up with the word "alteartion". In a closed environment, nothing escapes,. There can't be any explosion if there is no leakage.

I don't think this is true. You may have watched that fake video of 2 guys shaking a gas cylinder and it exploded. It was an edited video and nothing more. There are alot of taxis over here that use gas cylinder as their fuel, if what you said is true, there should be alot more explosion in this country than anywhere in the world because cars are constantly in vibration while in motion, not to mention when they enter bad roads.
I watched that video and I knew immediately that it was a made up video. How many retailers had suffered explosion in Nigeria due to shaking of the gas cylinders because, that's what they do all the time?
Re: Don't Shake A Gas Cylinder To Know The Level Of Its Content. Its Dangerous(pics) by Remii(m): 12:06pm On May 10, 2018
This sounds funny to me though, can gas settle inside unpartitioned container? This theory of wet and dry areas of cylinder is against gas law. P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2= Constant
