Example 19 - Pumping Fluid using Positive Displacement Pumps

    Pipe System with Positive Displacement Pumps

This example demonstrates the mixing of two oils using positive displacement pumps to move the fluids from two separate tanks in to a common pipeline which then discharges in to a third tank.

Example 20 - Methane Pipeline with Isothermal Flow

   
Top up Tanks with Pressurized Recirculation System

In this example methane at 70 deg F is being pumped through a 24" diameter pipeline. The gas pressure falls from 50.3 psig to 10.3 psig over the 24 mile length of the pipeline.

Example 21 - Zoned Pipe System for Compressed Air Distribution

   
Compressed Air Flow in Zoned Pipe System

This example uses different fluid zones to model a compressed air system which includes a lower pressure sub-system. The lower pressure section is supplied from the 'ring main' distribution system with the lower pressure area being controlled by a pressure reducing valve.
