Question:

A fuel gas has an average molecular weight of 18, a viscosity of 10-5 kg/m s, and a γ value of 1.4. It is sent to neighboring industrial users through 4-in, schedule-40, commercial-steel pipe. One such pipeline is 100 m long. The pressure at the plant exit is 1 MPa, and the required pressure at the receiver’s plant is 500 kPa. It is estimated that the gas maintains a constant temperature of 75°C over the entire length of 100 m. Estimate the volumetric flowrate of the fuel gas, metered at 1 atm and 60°C.
