NEW TRANSMISSION-FACTOR FORMULA PROPOSED FOR GAS PIPELINES

This article describes joint research involving 4 European natural gas transmission companies that has yielded a new transmission-factor formula as an alternative to the well-known Colebrook-White formula. Among other benefits, the very general formula has the potential to become widely accepted in giving a reliable theoretical foundation for pipeline planners and simulation tools. Several figures containing various data and equations are included.
