o Gas → pressure drop due to friction can be neglected → gas density can be assumed to be constant → the flow can be assumed as incompressible fluid flow

Relation between Fluid Pressure Drop and Shear Stress

o friction force leads to the decrease of the pressure along the pipe line

o Straight pipe with constant diameter → pressure at inlet > outlet

Fluid Flow Friction

o For constant x and position, the change of axial velocity along radial dimension r:

o Due to contact between fluid and stationary wall → the wall surface will give Fw force in the opposite direction with the fluid velocity

o Friction force Fs exists due to position difference between r and r+ r

o Shear Stress

o fluid flow towards x direction, cylindrical coordinate (x-r-)

o The axial velocity at radial position r and r+r dan lim

Natural gas will be transferred from a gas well located in Sengkang to the city of Pare-Pare, South Sulawesi. This well production flowrate is 50

MMSCFD. The pipe length required for this is 70 km long. Sengkang is 300 m higher than Pare-Pare. Natural gas has a molecular weight of 17. The gas temperature in the pipe is assumed to be fixed at 30 oC. The gas inlet pressure of this pipe is 60 kgf/cm2 gauge. Determine the gas outlet

pressure at various pipe diameters of 5, 10, and 15 inches. Graph the relationship between the pipe outlet pressure and the pipe diameter. The

allowable pipe roughness ε/D is 0.002.
