    Pipe Line Hydraulic Calculation: By: M. Khosravy

    Uploaded by

    Anyanele Nnamdi Felix
    This document provides an example of calculating natural gas flow through a pipeline system with multiple segments. It includes three questions: 1) Calculating the flow velocity in a pipeline segment given pipe dimensions and inlet/outlet pressures and temperatures. 2) Determining the suitable pipe diameters for branching the pipeline to deliver gas to different locations while maintaining desired pressure drops. 3) Calculating the pressure drop in each pipeline segment given the flow rates, diameters, elevations and inlet pressures. The document recommends using an RPA hydraulic module to calculate the properties and answer all the questions. It also provides equations that can be used to calculate friction factor based on Reynolds number and pipe roughness.

    Pipe Line Hydraulic Calculation

    By: M. Khosravy

    An Example !
    A pipeline has 4 segments as follow:
    Segment No.
    1 2 3 4 Length (Km) 15 20 50 15 Elevation (+m) 20 40 10 0 Temp (C) 50 30 40 20

    Question #1
    If the pipe diameter and inlet/outlet pressure are known, what is the flow velocity of natural gas in it?
    Outside diameter
    Wall thickness Inside diameter Inlet pressure

    Do
    t Di P1

    52
    0.25 51.5 1152

    Inlet temperature
    Outlet pressure Outlet temperature

    T1
    P2 T2

    50

    Psi C

    The Solution is :
    Q(SCF/D) 2,415,957,168 velocity 27.34 = ft/s 68.41 MMSCM/Day

    If the pipe efficiency consider 92% and effective roughness of 0.0018. The average erosion velocity is 59.2 ft/s so calculated velocity is OK.

    Question #2
    If we want to branch and use gas along pipeline as follow, what is the suit pipe diameter according to desire pressure drop?

    Pav Psi 1126.2 1050.8 950.88 891.53

    Question #3
    If the flow rate and inlet pressure with pipe diameter are known for each segments, how we can calculate pressure drop in each segments?
