This is not only important for natural gas pipeline flow, but also for the recovery of condensate from wet natural gases.

The degree of freedom is the number of intensive variables needed to define the state of the system. A reversible process is one for which the exchange of energy between the system and its surroundings takes place under vanishing gradients or driving forces; that is, the properties of the system and surroundings are balanced.

What is the information you need to obtain a value of “Z” for a gas? What is the compressibility factor of Methane (Pc = 666 psia, Tc = – 117 F) at P = 1000 psia and T = 0 F? Speculate on how you could calculate the “Z” factor for a gas using vdW EOS.

If a certain amount of the mixture 40% C 1 – 60% C 2 is kept in a vessel at 500 psia, determine the temperature at which the vessel has to be subjected if at least 50% of the substance is required to be in the liquid state. What would be the composition of the first bubble that appears in a isothermal expansion of a liquid at – 40 o F?

These are the primary reasons that scientists have made an effort to go beyond the ideal gas EOS, simply because it does not apply for all the cases of interest.

In the previous equation, V is the real volume occupied by the gas and VIdeal is the volume that the ideal model predicts for the same conditions.

Write a paragraph or so on what you believe the differences are and why. What should be the differences in the diagrams in question 1? Are the dew points the same? What about the bubble points? And their critical points?

We would want to know the quality and the quantity of what is coming out; that is, we need the compositions of the gas and oil that leave the separators and theflow rates of gas (MSCF/D) and oil (STB/D).
