Abstract
Parameter of medium pressure Ðñð is required, for example, to estimate the mass of natural gas involved in the formation of a fiery torch in case of emergency destruction of the main pipeline. However, the methodology for a systematic calculation of this parameter in the current methodological and normative documents, the author has not found. Despite the apparent simplicity of the problem, the analysis has shown that the parameter Ðñð depends primarily on the performance Qãï of pipeline, the pressure Ðí at the beginning of the emergency area and the pressure Ð0 at the point of the destruction of the pipeline, which in turn are determined by the dependencies from the pressure Ðê in the end of emergency site, the relationship of the lengths L1L emergency areas, inner diameter dâí of the pipeline, it's the roughness kø, the hydraulic resistance coefficient , the gas flow velocity w, it's the density in the working g, in the normal í and in the standard conditions ñ, and more than twenty parameters characterizing the state of a gas in terms of its transport and depressurization of the pipeline. In some cases there is no justification of the calculated transitions, for example, to calculate the final pressure Ðê2 gas at the second site crash in the presence of data for the initial pressure Ðí1 first site crash. Calculations of these parameters regulated in several normative documents, which introduces uncertainty in the choice of the calculation scheme and is accompanied by the production of different calculation results. Calculations of other parameters recommended by the standard methods are complex, threedimensional routine, require access to specialized software products that are not available in the current engineering activities. The subjects of this article are refinement of these problems, the rationale for the recommended design solutions and adapting them in a simple, systematic methodology for calculating the average pressure at different sections of the main pipeline.
