such as the reciprocating expansion engines. The purpose of this study is thermodynamic simulation of one-sided medium pressure reciprocating expansion engine. The simulation is based on energy and mass conservation laws and the AGA8 equation of state. The results show that...

theoretical analysis has been constructed to simulate natural gas reciprocating compressors. For computing the thermodynamic properties of natural gas based on real gas model, the AGA8 equation of state has been used. Numerical results validated with previous...

The aim of the current work is to investigate the effects of natural gas compositions on reciprocating compressor performance numerically. A numerical model has been built based on first law of thermodynamics, mass balance, ...

meters are basically volume flow meter which measure natural gas volume at flow condition. Then the natural gas volume at flow condition should be converted to volume at base (standard) condition by appreciated procedure. Historically, the AGA8 equation...

In this work, a numerical analysis for observing the proficiency of reciprocating compressors used in CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) stations is studied thermodynamically for ideal model and real one. AGA8 state equation is ...
