| Abstract
|
| The oil and gas industry
are a perfect target for applications
of mathematics techniques. From subsurface
exploration to production, refining,
transport and finally distribution
of oil, gas and products, real life
mathematical and decision problems
arise continuously. This mini-workshop
aims at bringing together scientists
and engineers from academia, research
laboratories, and industry, to promote
the application mathematics techniques
to the oil and gas industry problems.
Papers on all aspects of mathematical
theory, and computational and applied
mathematics focus to solve oil and
gas industry problem are invited to
be presented at the mini-workshop. |

Comparative Study of Non-Isothermal
Transient Gas Flow Models in Pipelines |
| In the present study a fully implicit
finite-difference method is used to
solve three mathematical models which
include the equations of continuity,
momentum, and energy for flow within
a gas pipeline. The first model considers
a constant compressibility factor.
The second model uses a simplified
form of the energy equation that includes
the Joule-Thompson coefficient. The
third model treats the compressibility
factor as a function of temperature
and pressure. For all models the friction
factor is considered a dependent variable
of the dimensionless roughness and
the Reynolds number. Some numerical
examples and verification with field
data are presented, allowing comparisons
for different flow conditions in a
pipeline.
Keywords: Non-Isothermal Transient
Gas Flow, finite differences, compressibility
factor.
