Performance adjustments pumping units (GPU) with a booster compressor station (BCS) during the operation

Performance Evaluation of El Batts Pumping Station

El Batts Pumping station is located in Fayoum Governorate on the right bank of existing Batts drain about 120 km south of Cairo, at entrance of 0.6 km north-west of Tamiya village. It is equipped with four vertical mixed flow pumping units. The main objectives of this pumping station are to increase the cultivated area by 10000 feddan in the north of Bahr Wahby, improve the irrigation for 20000...

Operation Analysis of Rotary Tools of Compressor Station Using Exergy Approach

In this study, operation of compressor station has been investigated by exergy approach. Exergy analysis is a thermodynamic method which shows the irreversibility of a system quantitatively. Gas compressors are used to compensate the pressure drop along the gas pipeline significantly. The compression process causes temperature rise of gas; in this regard gas cooler is applied to reduce the temp...

Performance and Gas Pulsations When Pumping Different Cases with the Same Compressor

CFD Analysis of Off-design Centrifugal Compressor Operation and Performance

This paper presents some of the results from a Master’s thesis research into the performance and operation of a centrifugal compressor at off-design operating conditions using advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques. ANSYS CFX is the CFD solver used in this blind study to evaluate the ability of modern CFD software to predict the performance of centrifugal compressors operating a...

Power Consumption Minimization of Khormoj Compressor Station

Arguably, the natural gas transmission pipeline infrastructure in Iran represents one of the largest and most complex mechanical systems in the world. The optimization of large gas trunk lines known as IGAT results in reduced fuel consumption or higher capability and improves pipeline operation. In the current study, a single-objective optimization was conducted for Khormoj compressor station o...
