Modelling of autonomous power source for gas distribution station using ASPEN HYSYS

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of energy conservation issues in gas transmission and gas distribution systems. In the Aspen HYSYS software package, the authors developed a model of an autonomous power source for gas distribution station (GDS). A brief simulation sequence is described. The dependence of the electric power of the expander-generator unit on the natural gas flow ratio is determined.
