Modelling natural gas pressure reducing stations for power generation using expansion turbines

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Engineering and Technology - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 4

Abstract

Natural gas has a high pressure before consumption in industries and cities. This pressure is reduced using relief valves in urban gas pressure reducing stations. Pressure drop results in great energy loss and accordingly stations are able to generate power. If we could install an expansion turbine parallel with the station and to move an axis, we could gain electricity from axial work. In this paper, first urban gas pressure reducing stations are modelled using HYSYS Software. After installation of an expansion turbine in the direction of station, productivity of the station is investigated, followed by examination of temperature, pressure, and productivity in the station and their results. Keywords: gas pressure reduction, expansion turbine, power generation

Edge detection of gravity anomaly sources via the tilt angle, total horizontal derivative, total horizontal derivative of the tilt angle and new normalized total horizontal derivative

In this paper the application of edge detection techniques to gravity data are described. Edge enhancement in potential-field data helps geologic interpretation. There exist several methods for enhancing edges, such as t...
