As a Gas Engineers at Centrica UK decided to use a temporary intermediate pressure pipeline during disruption to supply 4 m3 /hr(st) using 25 mm PE Pipe. Stating clearly all relevant assumptions and data where necessary, calculate (a) The length required to achieve a pressure drop of 4mbar using appropriate equation. (b) Calculate the length in (a) above using Hagen-Poiseuille equation. (c) Compare the answers obtained in (a) and (b) above, and comment on the differences (if any) in the calculation.
