EJERCICIO RESUELTO

A natural gas pipeline, AB is 100 mi long and is NPS16, 0.250 in. wall thickness. The elevation differences may be neglected and the pipeline assumed to be along a flat elevation profile. The gas flow rate is 100 MMSCFD. It is required to determine the pressure at the inlet A, considering a fixed delivery pressure of 1000 psig at the terminus B. The gas gravity and viscosity are 0.6 and 0.000008 lb/ft-s respectively. The gas flowing temperature is 70 F throughout. The base temperature and pressure are 60 F and 14.7 psia respectively. Use Compressibility Factor Chart for calculating the compressibility factor. Assume transmission factor F = 20.0 and use the General Flow equation for calculating the pressures.

PRACTICA 4
A gas pipeline, NPS 24 with 0.500 in. wall thickness transports 250 MMSCFD of natural gas having a specific gravity of 0.65 and a viscosity of 0.000008 lb/ft-s. Calculate the value of Reynolds number and the Colebrook-White friction factor, based on a pipe roughness of 700 micro-inches. The base temperature and base pressure are 60 F and 14.73 psia respectively. What is the corresponding transmission factor F?.
