Gas Hydraulic

INTRODUCTIONGas Hydraulic

Planning, Design, & Engineering Stage

- Calculate pipe sizing

- Calculate equipment sizing

Operation & Maintenance

- Start up- Shut down- Calculate

product quality & quantity

Commercial

- Additional gas supply decision

- Additional customer/demand decision

INTRODUCTIONGas HydraulicCONSERVATION OF MASSThe difference of the mass going in and going out leads to more mass staying in the fixed volume and thus to an increase in the densityor:What goes in must come out or is being stored

CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUMThe difference of the momentum going in and going out can only change due to external forces, that is pushing (pressure), friction or elevation changesCompare to billiard balls:It moves with constant velocity unless accelerated due to being pushed, decelerated due to friction or due to moving uphill or downhill

FLOW EQUATIONSummary

FLOW EQUATIONColebrook-WhiteThe Colebrook-White equation, sometimes referred to simply as the Colebrookequation, is a relationship between the friction factor and the Reynolds number,pipe roughness, and inside diameter of pipe.

GAS PROPERTIESGas VelocityThe velocity of gas flow in a pipeline represents the speed at which the gas molecules move from one point to another. Unlike a liquid pipeline, due to compressibility, the gas velocity depends upon the pressure and, hence, will vary along the pipeline even if the pipe diameter is constant.

Where will the highest velocity be?

GAS PROPERTIESMax Gas VelocityHow high can the gas velocity be in a pipeline? As the velocity increases, vibration and noise are evident.
